No system which implies control by privilege seekers has ever ended in any other way than collapse

Erik Larson is a renowned author known for his meticulously researched and compelling historical narratives. In his works, Larson often explores the consequences of power dynamics and the impact of privilege on society. One of the recurring themes in his writing is the idea that systems built on control by privilege seekers are inherently unstable and destined for collapse.

Larson's books, such as "The Devil in the White City" and "In the Garden of Beasts," delve into the lives of individuals who wielded immense power and influence, often at the expense of others. These figures, whether they be serial killers or Nazi diplomats, operated within systems that allowed them to exploit their privilege for personal gain. However, Larson's narratives also reveal the inherent flaws in such systems, as they ultimately lead to their downfall.
