In Loving Frank, fact and fiction come together to tell the tale of a man (FLW) who was having an affair with Mamah Borthwick Cheney.
How they knew each other: her husband had commissioned Frank to design a home for them...(scandalous!) Novel focuses on their dramatic love story- I saw it at Borders the other week...might have to get it!
Then another interesting historical novel came out called The Women, written by T.C. Boyle. (Fun fact: Boyle currently lives in a home designed by Mr. Wright.) He details out the architect's real life relationships with four women.
Who knew there was so much controversy hidden behind Frank's prairie style homes!
