I'm very much looking forward to this; also, I'm glad to hear that Hitchens is getting a new targeted cancer treatment.
(oh, and, the link is broken)
The amazon link, not this post image.
I hope it's warts and all and not bowdlerized.
It should contain, "Don't be such a Lesbian!" etc...
I guess this ia why he's been talking to lawyers etc... so much. To get out as much of his written stuff and published while he can as well as all the other getting-ones-affairs-in-order stuff.
How many books is he talking of releasing?
Collections of essays, collections of quotations, something on the Ten Commandments, a book about death...etc...
This sounds fantastic.
I believe HITCH-22 was the best book of 2010, and I certainly will get the new releases from Mr. Hitchens ASAP in the hopes of reading his latest between missions. Hitch is the only living author for whom I make time in my busy deployment schedules.
H-Minus, Sua Sponte!
Isn't it spelled "Alcohol"?
Or is that an alternate spelling?
Isn't it spelled "alternative"?
Or is that a verb?
I don't remember there being an alternative spelling for 'alcohol.'
Is that cover the real deal?
I am so flipping excited about brandishing this tome!
Oh, no, now I realize that the editor of this compilation is attached to that rag unfortunately known as The Washington Times, one of the worst newspapers in the history of news or paper. This is unacceptable.
I shall be peeping this one in the confines of the stacks of a free public library, thank ye!
Looks like they corrected the spelling of "alcohol", at least in the cover image on Amazon.
Can't wait for this to come out. I've already pre-ordered mine.
