'A good liar must have a good memory: Kissinger is a stupendous liar with a remarkable memory.' 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.
'This is a disturbing glimpse into the dark side of American power, whose consequences in remote corners of the globe are all too often ignored. Its countless victims have found an impassioned and skilful advocate in Christopher Hitchens.' - Sunday Times

Pulling no punches and going straight for the throat, Hitchens dissects the deeply dysfunctional characters which have shaped US foreign policy over decades and lays bare their hunger for power, devastating global influence and lies.
An essential read to understand the motivation for the over 70 years interventionist policies, which only took a brief respite while Trump was in office, the impact thereof and the shadowy figures pushing for more of the same for at least the next 4 years.
