Spring Green: A novel about Frank Lloyd Wright`s love life has inspired a new tour at Taliesin in southwest Wisconsin.
Nancy Horan`s best-selling "Loving Frank: A Novel" has brought attention to the tourist destination in Spring Green, which had a record attendance last season of about 28,500 people.
It`s based on the relationship between the famous architect and his real-life mistress Mamah Borthwick Cheney.
The two-hour tour looks at Taliesin from Borthwick`s point of view in the novel and includes readings and a stop at a nearby cemetery to see Borthwick`s grave.
The Wright used the property in Spring Green as a laboratory of sorts, changing and expanding it until he died in 1959.
The tour will be held on the second and fourth Fridays from May through October.
