Welcome to the 2nd hour of Christopher’s last interview on Hugh Hewitt Show. Hugh begins this hour with the topic of cruelty, mentioned in Htichens’ Memoir Hitch-22, on page-68. It’s big question. Why was Hitchens never cruel in any debate or public show? Does he maintain this attitude in his normal life or only when on camera or behind a microphone?
Hugh then moves on to Christopher’s technical writing techniques. Is there any secret intention in exposing something by making joke? Hitchens has not only written personal biographies but also an amazing biography about Jefferson. Hugh tries to discover Christopher’s writing attitude when writing a biography.
The interview then moves to topics of drinking, relationships, friends, discipline and many personal things in Hitchens’ life. Listen to get the inside view of who Christopher Hitchens, author of the bestseller God Is Not Great, really is.
Thanks for Listening!
