Loving Frank by Nancy Horan

Recommended by Irene

FIC Horan

In the early 1900s Frank Lloyd Wright left his wife and six children,scandalizing society by "eloping" to Europe with Mamah Borthwick Cheney. Mamah left her two small children behind as well. This fictionalized account of Mamah's struggle to justify her clandestine love affair and resolve her overwhelming guilt at leaving her children grabs the reader and doesn't let go. An engrossing account of real life people who followed their hearts as they hurt so many harmless people in the process.
