About this product
Product Information
From bestselling author and provocateur Christopher Hitchens, the classic guide to the art of principled dissent and disagreement In Letters to a Young Contrarian , bestselling author and world-class provocateur Christopher Hitchens inspires the radicals, gadflies, mavericks, rebels, and angry young (wo)men of tomorrow. Exploring the entire range of "contrary positions"--from noble dissident to gratuitous nag--Hitchens introduces the next generation to the minds and the misfits who influenced him, invoking such mentors as Emile Zola, Rosa Parks, and George Orwell. As is his trademark, Hitchens pointedly pitches himself in contrast to stagnant attitudes across the ideological spectrum. No other writer has matched Hitchens's understanding of the importance of disagreement--to personal integrity, to informed discussion, to true progress, to democracy itself.

Reviews
"Delicious....[ Letters to a Young Contraria n] showcases Hitchens at his most savage and wise."-- Progressive, "[Hitchens] is, first and last, a writer, an always exciting, often exacting, furious polemicist."-- Boston Globe, "Part revolutionist, part court jester, he is possessed of a wickedly effective prose style and sense of moral purpose....True democracy would not exist without Hitchens and his ilk. May this book breed many more contrarians, young and old alike."-- Timeout New York, " Letters shows Hitchens's best....[H]e makes entertaining mincemeat of self-satisfied politicians and shreds received ideas and media-spun consensus with a fearlessness that is invaluable in our mealymouthed punditocracy."-- Village Voice, "Hitchens exhibits precisely the combination of indignation and intellect that he recommends to others."-- New York Times Book Review

PERFECT TRANSACTION! The book was priced very reasonably; it is EXACTLY as pictured / described by the seller (coffee_house_art_and_books) in fantastic condition; It arrived quickly; and it was packaged very well. I am beyond psyched to begin reading this final chapter of The Dark Tower, but sad to know it's the last volume. THANK YOU "coffee_house_art_and_books" for making this possible, and for being another awesome seller we can all trust and rely on to provide us with a great experience.
