Publisher's Summary

What if notorious atheist Christopher Hitchens, best-selling author of God Is Not Great, had a Christian brother? He does.

Peter Hitchens details a very personal story of how he left the faith but dramatically returned. And like many of the Old Testament saints whose personal lives were intertwined with the life of their nation, so Peter's story is also the story of modern England and its sad spiritual decline.

Peter brings his work as an international journalist to bear as he documents firsthand accounts of atheistic societies, specifically in Communist Russia, where he lived in Moscow during the collapse of the Soviet Union. He shows that the world's bloodiest century, the 20th, entailed nothing short of atheism's own version of the Crusades and the Inquisition. The path to a secular utopia, pursued by numerous modern tyrants, is truly paved with more violence than has been witnessed in any era in history.

Hitchens provides hope for all believers whose friends or family members have left Christianity or who are enchanted by the arguments of the anti-religious intellects of our age.

A Remarkable Combination of Narrative and Argument

This book is not a typical polemic against atheism. It is a combination of story and argument, and so frames the author's journey from atheism to Christianity in a way that is at times amusing, often disturbing, and at other times remarkably heartfelt, particularly for a Brit. Peter's accent may make it more difficult for some to undsrstand; I personally found it complementary to the emotional weight regarding his own personal experiences and the well-known schism between him and his more famous atheist brother. This book may not be for all, but it is one of the most enjoyable apologetic books I have read up to this point.

There is only one Peter Hitchens

I don't want to get into it. It's about him and his brother and the USSR. if you are a Peter Hitchens fan, you will like it.

A tour de force of word play

Enjoy the English language at its best with some deep insights into why atheists rebel against God

This is not written by an atheist (which you might guess if you only base your assumptions on the title), but a Christian who probes the depths of atheist self delusions
