Vinegar Girl by Anne Tyler
The Taming of the Shrew Retold
In this modern retelling of Shakespeare's "The Taming of the Shrew," the story unfolds around Kate Battista, a sharp-tongued and independent young woman who finds herself caught in a peculiar predicament. Her eccentric scientist father concocts a plan to marry her off to his brilliant but socially awkward lab assistant, Pyotr, to prevent him from being deported. As Kate navigates the chaos of her father's scheme, she grapples with her own desires and the expectations placed upon her, leading to unexpected revelations about love, family, and self-discovery.
