Meryle Secrest's "Frank Lloyd Wright: A Biography" focuses on
Wright's family history, personal adventures, and colorful friends
and family. Secrest had unprecedented access to an archive of over
one hundred thousand of Wright's letters, photographs, drawings,
and books. She also interviewed surviving devotees, students, and
relatives. The result is an explicit portrait of both the genius
architect and the provocative con-man.
"Secrest seizes the themes most evocative of certain of our
cultural myths, forging them into a coherent and emotionally
plausible narrative."--"New Republic"
"An engaging narrative."--"New York Times Book Review"
"The real triumph of this biography . . . is the link it makes
between Frank Lloyd Wright's personal life and his
architecture."--"The Economist"
"Secrest's achievement is to etch Wright's character in sharp
relief. . . . She] presents Wright in his every guise."-Blair
Kamin, "Chicago Tribune"
"An extremely engaging profile."--"The Philadelphia Inquirer"
"A spellbinding portrait."--"Library Journal"
"The best biography] so far, a huge and definitive accumulation of
fact."--"Time"
