☆这最后的文字,没有一丝伤感或自怜,是希钦斯最后的作品之一,也是他最好的作品之一。 ——格里登•卡特,《名利场》杂志主编 省省吧,那些名不副实的心灵鸡汤 与死神正面交手的真实记录 拒绝展览、拒绝做戏的生命书写

On June 8, 2010, while on a book tour for his bestselling memoir, Hitch-22 , Christopher Hitchens was stricken in his New York hotel room with excruciating pain in his chest and thorax. As he would later write in the first of a series of award-winning columns for Vanity Fair, he suddenly found himself being deported "from the country of the well across the stark frontier that marks off the land of malady." Over the next eighteen months, until his death in Houston on December 15, 2011, he wrote constantly and brilliantly on politics and culture, astonishing readers with his capacity for superior work even in extremis.
Throughout the course of his ordeal battling esophageal cancer, Hitchens adamantly and bravely refused the solace of religion, preferring to confront death with both eyes open. In this riveting account of his affliction, Hitchens poignantly describes the torments of illness, discusses its taboos, and explores how disease transforms experience and changes our relationship to the world around us. By turns personal and philosophical, Hitchens embraces the full panoply of human emotions as cancer invades his body and compels him to grapple with the enigma of death.
MORTALITY is the exemplary story of one man's refusal to cower in the face of the unknown, as well as a searching look at the human predicament. Crisp and vivid, veined throughout with penetrating intelligence, Hitchens's testament is a courageous and lucid work of literature, an affirmation of the dignity and worth of man.

评分好桑感
评分Hitchens生前在名利场的最后一个专栏编辑而成,从无神论写到水刑,仿佛晚期癌症只是一个新的谈话的角度。结尾一篇零碎的笔记,未完成,翻过去就是太太写的后记,比Hitchens自己的文笔还要好,一样坚韧,直到最后的最后。
