Vinegar Girl

Kate Battista is stuck. How did she end up running house and home for
her eccentric scientist father and infuriating younger sister Bunny?
Dr
Battista has other problems. His brilliant young lab assistant, Pyotr, is about
to be deported. And without Pyotr, his new scientific breakthrough will fall
through…
When Dr
Battista cooks up an outrageous plan that will enable Pyotr to stay in the
country, he’s relying – as usual – on Kate to help him. Will Kate be able to
resist the two men’s touchingly ludicrous campaign to win her round?
Anne
Tyler’s brilliant retelling of The Taming of the Shrew asks whether a thoroughly modern woman like Kate
would ever sacrifice herself for a man. The answer is as surprising as Kate herself.
