Christopher Hitchens

Over the last thirty years, Christopher Hitchens has established himself as one of the world’s most influential public intellectuals.

In this long-awaited and candid memoir, Hitchens retraces the footsteps of his life to date, from his childhood in Portsmouth, with his adoring mother and reserved Naval officer father; to his life in Washington DC.

Hitch-22 is, by turns, moving and funny, charming and infuriating, enraging and inspiring. It is an indispensable companion to the life and thought of our pre-eminent political writer.
