The Trial of Henry Kissinger by Christopher Hitchens
Christopher Hitchens goes straight for the jugular in The Trial of Henry Kissinger. Under his fearsome gaze, the former Secretary of State and National Security Advisor is accused of being a war criminal whose reckless actions and heinous disregard for international law have led to torture, kidnapping, and murder. This book is a polemical masterpiece by a man who, for forty years, was the Angloshpere's preeminent man of letters. In The Trial of Henry Kissinger, Hitchens' verve, style and firebrand wit are on show at the height of their potency. 'A good liar must have a good memory: Kissinger is a stupendous liar with a remarkable memory.' Christopher Hitchens
'This is a disturbing glimpse into the dark side of American power, whose consequences in remote corners of the globe are all too often ignoredIts countless victims have found an impassioned and skilful advocate in Christopher Hitchens.' * Sunday Times *
'This book is so studiedly defamatory that if Kissinger values his reputation, he really must sue.' * Literary Review *
I find it contemptible. * Henry Kissinger *
