Produktinformationen zu „The Women “
»Die Frauen«. Das Leben des genialen, exzentrischen Star-Architekten Frank Lloyd Wright. Affären hinter geschlossenen Türen, gebrochene Herzen und überall lauern die Paparazzi... Der große Architekt des 20. Jahrhunderts lebte die Extreme - sowohl in seiner Arbeit als auch im Privaten. Nach Cornflakes-Erfinder Kellog und Sexualforscher Kinsey stürzt T.C. Boyle ein weiteres amerikanisches Idol.

Klappentext zu „The Women “
Welcome to the troubled, tempestuous world of Frank Lloyd Wright. Scandalous affairs rage behind closed doors, broken hearts are tossed aside, fires rip through the wings of the house and paparazzi lie in wait outside the front door for the latest tragedy in this never-ending saga. This is the home of the great architect of the twentieth century, a man of extremes in both his work and his private life: at once a force of nature and an avalanche of need and emotion that sweeps aside everything in its path. Sharp, savage and subtle in equal measure, The Women plumbs the chaos, horrors and uncontainable passions of a formidable American icon.

Rezension zu „The Women “
'Frank Lloyd Wright's three dramatic love affairs, with all the elaborate deceptions, abandoned children, scandalised headlines and cruel conflagrations, real and metaphorical. The prose is sparkling, the narrative gripping, and the material to die for' The Times 'Gripping, enormously entertaining, and written with deliberately melodramatic gusto' Lionel Shriver, Daily Telegraph 'Boyle ratchets up every ounce of tension from the story. A stunning achievement' Daily Mail 'Riveting ... Despite dozens of writers' attempts to capture Wright's story, it seems safe to say that none has rendered it with more crackling life than Boyle' Wall Street Journal
