The formerly imprisoned dissident Playwright was at the epicenter of 'The Velvet Revolution' that took the country to freedom only to become President. This book 'Letters To Olga' is a fascinating collection of letters he wrote to his wife while he was in prison. They are remarkable thoughts of a brilliant man disciplined enough to do important things while in confinement.

The British American Hitchens was often on TV debating many topics, but also made his mark as an Author, Vanity Fair writer, devout Atheist. He traveled the globe covering dictators and politics, lived in Washington DC illuminating the beltway including being involved in the Lewinsky trial (Hitch the Snitch), and covered both serious and hilarious topics for Vanity Fair with his signature off-the-cuff wit and references. He was a rare bird and worth reading.

Faced with devastation and horror on 9/11 losing 658 of 1000 NY employees in the attack, few would've survived--much less thrived and taken care of the victim's families.
