Product Description

The romantic relationship between Frank Lloyd Wright and Mamah Borthwick — following his design of her and husband Edwin Cheney's home — changed the life of Wright, Borthwick, and their respective families. First time novelist Nancy Horan imagines the burgeoning relationship between the two; their flight to Europe and Mamah's relationship to Swedish feminist, Ellen Key; the creation of Wright's Wisconsin home, Taliesin for himself and Mamah; and her tragic end, all from Borthwick's point of view. Loving Frank takes historical fact and creates a sensitive portrayal of a woman at the turn of the last century who made the decision to leave her husband and children for a brilliant artist, and the ultimate catastrophic consequences of that decision. Publisher: Random House (2008). Length: 400 pages, trade paperback. Also available in hardcover. Read about Taliesin in the GA Traveler Series book. The 1914 fire at Taliesin has been explored in William Drennan's book, Death in a Prairie House.
