It's about the event's in his life that made him who he was rather than only his Architecture, which is also mentioned.
A heavy slow read. ( )

Incredibly well researched biography by author Paul Hendrickson who clearly wanted to dispel some of the myths and legends surrounding egomaniac and brilliant architect, FLW. Instead, Paul uses the horrifying murders of Mamah Bothwick, Wright's lover, and her children and other workers at Talesin in Wisconsin to show how Wright's life must've been affected and also to show, at different places in his writings, the kindness, humor and conscious that the man did possess.

Throughout Wright's life, fire played a key role in destroying or attempting to destroy that which Wright loved the most. ( )
