No. I’ll check it out.

I think the one I saw lately about their relationship was by Kelly O’Connor McNees called Undiscovered Country. Have you seen that one?

What are the other two? Did you read them? I’d be curious to learn more.

I didn’t know about their relations before. I better brush up on my history. Interesting perspective. Nicely done review.

It was a movie, but more focused on him. It was several years ago, but I think it was okay.

I don’t know about Hyde Park- is it a book? I might be interested in reading it to learn more about Eleanor but I have no interest in anything about another cheating, selfish, powerful man. Not even in my fiction these days!

Thanks! I heard there were people who felt it ‘smeared’ Eleanor for being a lesbian, but I don’t see that as taking away from her legacy. In fact, I think it’s a narrow-minded POV. I found them both to be fascinating women trying to having a bit of happiness in very difficult circumstances.

I feel as if it got to the complexities of such a relationship and shed light on the Roosevelt marriage.

This sounds like a worthy read.
