Loving Frank Nancy Horan

This is terrific novel about the lives of Frank Lloyd Wright and Mamah Cheney, the woman who left her husband and children to follow him. Really well-written, an easy read, but facts are accurate, and it tells the story of an educated, intelligent woman struggling to find herself in turn-of-the-century America. The ending is a shocker for those who don't already know the story of the fire at Taliesin.
