  The history America never wanted you to read. 
  'The narrative took my breath away' Philippe Sands 
  'An extraordinarily and shockingly powerful read' Peter Frankopan 
  'One of the must-reads of the year' Suzannah Lipscomb 
  'Brilliant and provocative' Gavin Esler 
   
  Sarah Churchwell examines one of the most enduringly popular stories of all time, Gone with the Wind, to help explain the divisions ripping the United States apart today. Separating fact from fiction, she shows how histories of mythmaking have informed America's racial and gender politics, the controversies over Confederate statues, the resurgence of white nationalism, the Black Lives Matter movement, the enduring power of the American Dream, and the violence of Trumpism. 
   
  Gone with the Wind was an instant bestseller when it was published in 1936; its film version became the most successful Hollywood film of all time. Today the story's racism is again a subject of controversy, but it was just as controversial in the 1930s, foreshadowing today's debates over race and American fascism. In The Wrath to Come, Sarah Churchwell charts an extraordinary journey through 160 years of American denialism. From the Lost Cause to the romances behind the Ku Klux Klan, from the invention of the 'ideal' slave plantation to the erasure of interwar fascism, Churchwell shows what happens when we do violence to history, as collective denial turns fictions into lies, and lies into a vicious reality.

  Taoism, one of the world's most ancient spiritual traditions, offers profound insights into the nature of existence and the interconnectedness of all life. Originating in China over two thousand years ago, Taoism encompasses a rich tapestry of philosophy, spirituality, and practice that has influenced not only the Chinese culture but also the broader global community. This book aims to explore the essence of Taoism, its core teachings, and its relevance in the modern world. 
  At the heart of Taoism is the concept of the Tao, often translated as "the Way." The Tao represents the fundamental principle that underlies and unites all things in the universe. It is an ever-flowing force that guides the natural order of the cosmos, encouraging individuals to live in harmony with the rhythms of nature. Through the exploration of key texts such as the *Tao Te Ching* and the *Zhuangzi*, readers will gain insights into the profound wisdom of Laozi and Zhuang Zhou, two of Taoism's most revered sages. 
  This book delves into the core beliefs and practices of Taoism, emphasizing its emphasis on simplicity, humility, and compassion. The teachings of Taoism encourage individuals to embrace the spontaneity of life, to cultivate inner peace, and to foster a deep sense of connection with the natural world. By exploring the principles of yin and yang, the significance of Wu Wei (effortless action), and the pursuit of harmony, readers will discover how Taoism offers a pathway to balance and fulfillment. 
  In our contemporary world, characterized by rapid change and constant distraction, the wisdom of Taoism serves as a gentle reminder of the importance of slowing down, reconnecting with nature, and finding tranquility within ourselves.
