A new book about Frank Lloyd Wright and his circle, entitled The Fellowship: The Untold Story of Frank Lloyd Wright and the Taliesin Fellowship, investigates the architect's sexuality, inter alia:
Friedland and Zellman also have done ground-breaking work on Wright’s sexual ambiguity. The architect fought a life-long struggle with his own manhood and even identified himself with Socrates’s bi-sexual lover, Alcibiades, a code-word for gay-leaning men. Additionally, many of Wright’s closest male friends were homosexuals, to one of whom he once confessed, “There but for the grace of God, go I.”
