White Houses by Amy Bloom

This is the fictionalised account of Lorena Hickson’s love affair with Eleanor Roosevelt. It features all the characters and had me running to Google time and time again to look up the details of who they were in real life. It’s a sensitively and beautifully written love story, which shows the push-pull nature of such affairs between strong and independent women. The character of Hick, who tells the story, just shines.
