During the hectic period of the end of the Roman Republic, Rome was faced with a terrorist plot of its own. 


A group of disgruntled aristocrats wanted to burn down the city and take control of the republic.

NPR's Book of the Day - Viet Thanh Nguyen follows Pulitzer winning ‘The Sympathizer’ with ‘The Committed’

Viet Thanh Nguyen's novel The Committed follows the same unnamed character we met in his Pulitzer-winning thriller, The Sympathizer. The character is now in Paris; having become disillusioned with the revolution he was a part of when we last saw him, he hasn't given up on the idea entirely. Nguyen told NPR's Scott Simon the book is also about colonization: He "wanted it to be set in a Paris that was not the tourist Paris or the romantic Paris. [It's] a novel about French ideas and French Revolution and French colonialism, but it's also a crime thriller set in these immigrant neighborhoods."

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘The Vortex’ investigates how climate catastrophes can have unexpected consequences

In 1970, a cyclone tore through Pakistan and the political lines that existed, leading to genocide and very nearly a nuclear war in the country. Author Scott Carney was curious about this catastrophe but also how these extreme weather events, which are only becoming more common, have political consequences. Carney told NPR's Steve Inskeep that we will almost certainly face similar problems in the future, so we should be wary of today's unstable political systems.
