Over the past fifty years, renowned intellectual BHL has reported extensively on human rights abuses around the world. This book follows the Lévy into eight international hotspots—in Nigeria; Syrian and Iraqi Kurdistan; Ukraine; Somalia; Bangladesh; Lesbos; Libya; and Afghanistan—that have escaped global attention or active response.
Two brilliant, controversial authors, Bernard-Henri Lévy et Michel Houellebecq, confront each other and their enemies in an unforgettable exchange of letters. Dazzling, delightful, and provocative, “Public Enemies” is a death match between literary lions, remarkable men who find common ground.
In this unprecedented critique, Bernard-Henri Lévy revisits his political roots, scrutinizes the totalitarianisms of the past as well as those on the horizon, argues powerfully for a new political and moral vision for our times and offers a powerful new vision for progressives everywhere.
Bernard-Henri Lévy continues his daring investigation into the breeding grounds of terrorism with a series of riveting first-person reports from five of the world’s most horrific “forgotten” war zones : Angola, Sri Lanka, Colombia, Sudan, Burundi.
As this century saw the rise first of Communism, then of Fascism, French intellectuals have hurried to take sides and devote their writings to the good of their chosen Cause. To follow Bernard-Henri Levy, one of the high members of the “new philosophers”, in his quest is an altogether stimulating exercise.
In a groundbreaking book that combines a novelist’s eye with riveting investigative journalism, BHL, one of the world’s most esteemed writers, retraces Pearl’s final steps through a murky Islamic underworld. The investigation plunges Lévy into his own heart of darkness – and a series of stunning revelations about who the real terrorists are.
The morally minded French public intellectual applies 21st-century chutzpah to our radical age.
