The Devil in the White City / Come On Feel The Illinoise

Has anyone read The Devil in the White City? I read it after seeing it mentioned in a few separate places, including the recent Sufjan Stereogum article:

Anyone who knows the story told in Erik Larson’s Devil In The White City — and Stevens surely does — understands that outside the park’s gates the joyous innovation of the expo gave way to the harsh realities of American urban life at the turn of the century. These atrocities included a serial killer who tortured to death an estimated 200 women without drawing an ounce of attention from authorities, who were too busy making sure rich investors weren’t disappointed with the festivities to notice.

It's a great read, especially if you're even the least bit interested in the events of the World's Columbian Exposition and 1890s Chicago.

(There's also an upcoming movie with Leonardo Dicaprio. I think they'd be crazy not to make use of the song for the soundtrack).
