Martin Amis, a close friend of Christopher Hitchens, talks about how Christopher Hitchens' death has lead him to appreciate life to the degree that Hitchens had. Amis goes on to explain that despite his friend's love for literature, Hitchens was too intelligent to be a novelist: "You need a bit of stupidity and a bit of innocence to be a novelist…" Hitchens died on December 15, 2011.
