Loving Frank

Passion, scandal, and the price of fulfillment.

Diving into "Loving Frank," you'll be transported back in time to witness the tempestuous and controversial love story between Mamah Cheney and Frank Lloyd Wright. It's more than just a historical romance; it's an exploration of the social mores of the early 20th century, and the sacrifices one must make for love and self-discovery. The novel breathes life into Mamah's journey, making you ponder the often heavy cost of following one's heart against societal norms.

Description

In the internationally bestselling vein of The Paris Wife, this biographical novel is set in the early 1900s when polite Chicago society was rocked by terrible scandal when renowned architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, ran off with Mamah Cheney, a client's wife. Abandoning their families and reputations, the lovers fled to Europe and exile. Mamah's actions branded her an unnatural mother, and society relished her persecution. For the rest of her life, Mamah paid an extraordinary price for moving outside society's rules, in a time that was unforgiving of a woman's quest for fulfillment and personal happiness. Headstrong and honest, her love for Frank was unstoppable. This portrait of her life as his muse and soulmate is a moving, passionate, and timeless love story with a shocking conclusion.
