Nancy Horan's writing is lovely and easy throughout this fictional yet quite historical account of Wright and his mistress, Mamah Borthwick. The turn of the 20th century was a time when extramarital excursions were blatantly ostracized - yet the fusing of these two epic personalities seemed inevitable - and the resultant electrifying energies served them well. This tale presents the very human qualities of larger than life personas in a very revealing yet somewhat sympathetic, light. Enchantingly engrossing!
