Erik Larson
“. . . why some men choose to fill their brief allotment of time engaging the impossible, others in the manufacture of sorrow.”
Erik Larson, The Devil in the White City

Erik Larson
“Beneath the stars the lake lay dark and sombre," Stead wrote, "but on its shores gleamed and glowed in golden radiance the ivory city, beautiful as a poet's dream, silent as a city of the dead.”
Erik Larson, The Devil in the White City

Erik Larson
“The smell of peace is abroad, the air is cold, the skies are brittle, and the leaves have finally fallen. I wear a pony coat with skin like watered silk and muff of lamb. My fingers lie in depths of warmth. I have a jacket of silver sequins and heavy bracelets of rich corals. I wear about my neck a triple thread-like chain of lapis lazulis and pearls. On my face is softness and content like a veil of golden moonlight. And I have never in all my lives been so lonely.”
Erik Larson, In the Garden of Beasts: Love, Terror, and an American Family in Hitler's Berlin

Erik Larson
“Chicago has disappointed her enemies and astonished the world”
Erik Larson, The Devil in the White City

Erik Larson
“It was so easy to disappear, so easy to deny knowledge, so very easy in the smoke and din to mask that something dark had taken root. This was Chicago, on the eve of the greatest fair in history.”
Erik Larson, The Devil in the White City
