Arguably: Selected Essays by Christopher Hitchens

This collection engages an interest in the world. I didn't even *know* I wanted to know about certain topics or events or persons until I started reading. I'll often have to start by looking up just who or what the particulars are but then Hitchen's enthusiasm, humor, and cascading analysis grabs hold and doesn't release. This fella' enjoys language and his usage of it is razor sharp. Every sentence feels fresh and precise in its construction, regardless of what is being written about. He's also exceptionally good at getting a reaction out of his reader; I left this collection mad, glad, and anxious to pursue other books and outlets on some of the subjects he highlights.
