Just Finished Letters to a Young Contrarian- Hitchens

Easy read!

I've personally begrudge reading Hitchens in the past because he has an expansive vocabulary and it shows in his writing, but I paired myself up with a dictionary this time and found it much easier to follow.

As for the content, I appreciate the book not being entirely dogmatic by Hitchens.

By that I mean he uses anecdotes from notable figures throughout history of recent fame and classical fame.

Of course he uses his influences, however I find that he integrated the thought of his colleague in a vast way. With the exception of 3 or for letters.

With his belief in God, division in Politics, and Bill Clinton(yes, two different topics).

Any other readers if this?

No one in my circle has read it, which is why I have come to the whole of reddit, if you will.
