Sinopsis de VINEGAR GIRL
No one does family like Anne Tyler does family. Are the Battistas her most appealing yet?
You cant get around Kate Battista as easily as all that
Kate Battista is feeling stuck. How did she end up running house and home for her eccentric scientist father and uppity, pretty younger sister Bunny? Plus, shes always in trouble at work her pre-school charges adore her, but the adults dont always appreciate her unusual opinions and forthright manner.
Dr Battista has other problems. After years out in the academic wilderness, he is on the verge of a breakthrough. His research could help millions. Theres only one problem: his brilliant young lab assistant, Pyotr, is about to be deported. And without Pyotr
When Dr Battista cooks up an outrageous plan that will enable Pyotr to stay in the country, hes relying as usual on Kate to help him. Kate is furious: this time hes really asking too much. But will she be able to resist the two mens touchingly ludicrous campaign to win her round?
Anne Tylers retelling of The Taming of the Shrew asks whether a thoroughly modern, independent woman like Kate would ever sacrifice herself for a man. The answer is as individual, off-beat and funny as Kate herself.
