The Women

This book is different, though, to much of the canon of Wright-on literature – after all, the vast majority of FLW-related books are on his physical output, his buildings, and so most of those books are illustration-dominated, many coffee table-sized.

TC Boyle’s flamboyantly creative take on Wright, however, looks at the man – and his lust for life and women. In reverse chronological order, it details his relationship with four of the key women in his life (or five, when you realise he was a bit of a mammy’s boy, building houses and moving back in with her as it suited).
