The Paris Wife

Fiction
Written By Meighan

By Paula McLain

Like Loving Frank about Frank Lloyd Wright's wife, this book is about the wife of a famous man, in this case, Hemingway's first wife, Hadley Richardson. McLain did not do as good a job as Horan did in making fictional conversations between real people seem genuine but overall I enjoyed the story as it is set in two of my favorite places, Oak Park and Paris.

Meighan

I write short, pithy, book recommendations for family and friends. My best life is comprised of my husband, my boys, my books, a quiet place, a comfortable chair, a cocktail on my side table, and a Vizsla in my lap.
