| Strong Content in New Book About Frank Lloyd Wright |
|
|
|
NEW YORK.- A new book that is about to be released features strong content about architect Frank Lloyd Wright and his family. The book titled, The Fellowship: The Untold Story of Frank Lloyd Wright & the Taliesin Fellowship is a 664-page volume by sociologist Roger Friedland and architect Harold Zellman which has already been cited on the New York Post's Page Six.
Citing the book, Page Six says Wright called homosexuals "degenerates" but surrounded himself with them at Taliesin West "where studly apprentices roamed the grounds in bathing attire and harem costumes" and "his drug-addicted daughter Iovanna tried to kill his wife twice, once with a meat cleaver."
The Arizona Republic reported that The Wright Foundation, still recovering from recent board struggles that curbed the power of the fellowship and a national accrediting group's sanction of its architecture school, now faces a national promotional blitz for the book.
Publisher´s Weekly wrote about the book, Few architects have gained the level of professional achievement and popular notoriety of Frank Lloyd Wright, who's as famed for his bullheadedness, abuse of underlings, condescension to his clients and his numerous wives as he is for his indisputable masterpieces of American architecture.
