I received a Hitchens book titled 'Arguably' for Christmas. First time I have ever enjoyed reading an Introduction! The book is a collection of Essays and I am working through them in cover to cover order. Even though there are some that have awfully tempting titles a bit further along.
I have finished off the first four essays. Hitchens is enjoyable to read and his subject matter is so interesting. As I am an Australian reader and the first part of his book covers American themes - not something I am well versed on or really care about too much. I didn't think I would really enjoy what he had to say. Instead I find myself learning some interesting things and being entertained.
Looking forward to reading more! It is a mammoth book so it should last me until at least new years.
