Descrizione

《白城恶魔》是美国作家埃里克·拉森的长篇犯罪纪实小说代表作。
1893年,镀金时代的美国,芝加哥世界博览会即将举行,旧世界正在崩塌,荣耀与罪恶争相上演。
总设计师伯纳姆孜孜以求,集合知名的建筑师和规划师,只为打造一场令世人赞叹的世博会,重塑芝加哥的形象。他说,这不会只是一个梦。
而在几个街区之外,一位年轻英俊的医生踏出列车,手中提着手术箱。对不知道他隐秘嗜好的女性而言,他的外表充满了魅力。他走入这个充满喧哗、雾霾和蒸汽的世界,在心中勾勒出了一座“神秘旅馆”,在那里,所有隐秘邪恶的梦想都将实现……
“我不能不杀人,就像诗人一样,灵感一来就不能不吟唱。”《白城恶魔》以富于诗意和张力的纪实性语言,交替描写了世博会的建造和杀人恶魔的疯狂。这个故事是如此丰盛,又如此邪恶,让每个人赞叹不已,又充满恐惧。

I feel like the description of this book was a lie. It was meant to be a documentary about H.H. Holmes, but it really felt like the history of the Chicago Fair, including the murders. Also, the parts involving H.H. Holmes felt a lot more like a story than facts.

Erik Larson takes an interesting approach to the Chicago World Fair by writing narratives from two very different perspectives. I was skeptical on how an architectural approach would work next to a serial killer story, but the stories were well put together, going back and forth between the two men seamlessly. Certainly a unique, yet intriguing, way to recount a famous historical event.
