Read by Kirsten Potter.
Anne Tyler's retelling of the Shakespeare play "The taming of the shrew." Kate, a socially awkward young woman, adored by the preschool children she teaches but misunderstood by her peers. Her father is a scientific genius, but not so great on emotions. About to lose his (equally genius, equally socially inept) research assistant, Pyotr Cherbakov, because of visa problems, and desperate to save the project that is his life's work, he comes up with a plan: Kate will marry Pyotr who will then be able to stay in the country and finish the project. The plan sounds perfect, except for one small hitch: Kate.
Contents: Taming of the shrew.

Cute, Quirky and Funny submitted by mickplu on June 24, 2019, 4:21pm Loved this "retelling" of the Taming of the Shrew. The characters are well developed, true to life and genuine.
