Loving Frank by Nancy Horan

This is a book about the love affair between Mamah Borthwick Cheney and Frank Wright. It is not until about 3/4ths through the book that you learn how to pronounce Mamah's name. Small things like that drive me crazy. So do the big things such as how Mamah walked out on her family including two young children to go to Europe with Frank. I never felt the character development was strong in this book- it seemed mostly like an obsessed rambling from Mamah who was bored with her husband and smitten with the architect who designed their home. I feel she gets her just desserts when the house in Wisconsin Taliesan where she and Frank lived burned down - unfortunately it killed her kids but not Frank who manages to keep building houses and adding 2 wives to his portfolio.
