Heavenly Kingdom
The War of God and Man in 19th-Century ChinaBy Chris A. Piazza | Antherra™
Length1h 25m
About this audiobook
After failed scholar Hong Xiuquan recasts humiliation as divine revelation, his promise of a Heavenly Kingdom moves from village prayer to rebel capital. Madam Lai follows because belief briefly quiets hunger, while Yang Xiuqing turns revelation into decrees, inventories, and punishment. As Nanjing starves and paper commands become food, the kingdom discovers that heaven inside people can sustain mercy—or justify making the world obey.
