A splendid piece ...

... Christopher Hitchens | Bryan Appleyard. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)

This ... may well be his last collection of journalism. It spans, roughly, the past decade and it covers subjects from fellatio to life in Afghanistan, from PG Wodehouse to Stieg Larsson, from the beauty and horror of Iran to the increasingly bonkers Gore Vidal. He doesn’t seem to do much science but, in general, if it reads, bleeds or laughs, Hitch will be all over it, specially if the intricacies and wonders of American foreign policy are involved.
