Review Quotes:
"Only Casey Sherman could have captured the scope, the intimacy, the passion and the tragedy of Frank Lloyd Wright. This book is of literary and historical importance--full of suspense and fascinating details, it also reads like a riveting, cinematic novel. It will blow you away!" --
Laurent Bouzereau, director, HBO's Faye and JAWS @ 50
Review Quotes:
"Casey Sherman maps the human trail between genius and catastrophe. The reporting is exacting, the storytelling propulsive. Along the way we get Wright unvarnished: charm, ego, scandal, and the choices that put a killer in his house. This is true history with the snap of a thriller. As an armchair architecture enthusiast, even one who has visited Taliesin, I thought I knew a lot about this story, but I turned the last page seeing Wright, and the tragedies that shadowed him, anew. Haunting." --
Laurie Gwen Shapiro, author of The Aviator and the Showman: Amelia Earhart, George Putnam, and the Marriage That Made an American Icon
Review Quotes:
