I did not know this. I will google it right now.


I know this is sensational but did you know his mother was murdered in a murder-suicide by her lover. I believe she had run away with him and left her family. Immediately he went to Greece to identify his mother and served to handle what could not but have been a horribly wrenching experience. Hitchens lived in Greece for a time and his first wife was a Greek attorney. What strikes me about him as much or more than his brilliance, utter conviction in his principles (self-confidence), and beauty, is his utter realism. Which must have helped him through everything he faced. Because he faced it head on.
