The Women
by T.C. Boyle
Having brought to life eccentric cereal king John Harvey Kellogg in The Road to Wellville and sex researcher Alfred Kinsey in The Inner Circle,
T.C. Boyle now turns his fictional sights on an even more colorful and
outlandish character: Frank Lloyd Wright. Boyle's incomparable account
of Wright's life is told through the experiences of the four women who
loved him. There's the Montenegrin beauty Olgivanna Milanoff, the
passionate Southern belle Maude Miriam Noel, the tragic Mamah Cheney,
and his young first wife, Kitty Tobin. Blazing with his trademark wit
and inventiveness, Boyle deftly captures these very different women and
the creative life in all its complexity. (Book Description)
