Fuck Kim Jong Il, let's get a Hitchens thread going. May he rest in peace.

You misspelt Havel, and messed up the birth date.

>> No.2269591

It's really rather sad that, given how much Hitchens liked to compare god's domain to a "celestial North Korea", he died 2 days before Kim Jong Il. If only it had been the other way around...

Have you read any of Havel's plays?
Has anyone?

i really like a lot of his work. i thought his ideas about responsibility and human connections were pretty inspiring. i read more of his speeches and essays, and writings while in prison than the plays, though. not many politicians like him around

Of course, since I'm not some kind of uncultured neckbeard. It's rumoured some even go outside and see them performed.

Hey Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ, been meaning to get into Havel.
What of his work do you suggest?
