Love, Poverty x{0026} War

Resumen del libro

The departure point for this book is an antique saying: life is not complete unless love, poverty and war have been experienced. Love' opens with Christopher Hitchens confronting the legacy of Kipling, Trotsky and Churchill, and celebrates the work of Joyce, Proust and Borges. The focus then turns to Hitchens's journey down Route 66 and the Sunset Strip, and ends with a moving portrait of the United
States after 9/11. Poverty' includes a series of devastating assessments of Michael Moore, David Irving and the cult of the Kennedys. The book's final section, War', contains Hitchens's biting reportage from among others Chile, North Korea, Pakistan, Kurdistan and Iraq.
