by Anne Tyler

挑戰莎士比亞系列作第三彈！

邀請各國知名作家共襄盛舉，將莎士比亞經典劇作改寫成現代小說

 ►作者簡介

Anne Tyler 安妮‧泰勒是美國當代受到矚目的作者之一，至今已出版逾二十部作品。她曾以 Dinner at the Homesick Restaurant《鄉愁小館的晚餐》(1982)、The Accidental Tourist 《意外的旅客》(1985)兩次入圍普立茲小說獎決選。

安妮‧泰勒的個性低調，甚少公開露面，1988年當她的小說 Breathing Lessons《生命課程》榮獲普立茲獎，她以正在寫作為由婉拒採訪。近期作品 The Spool of Blue Thread《糾纏的藍線》則同時入圍2015年英國女性小說獎與曼布克文學獎決選。2017年更加入挑戰莎士比亞系列，與其他享譽盛名的當代作家將莎翁的經典劇作改寫成現代小說，以馴悍記為靈感創作出版 Vinegar Girl《醋女孩》。

Kate Battista feels stuck. How did she end up running house and home for her eccentric scientist father and uppity, pretty younger sister Bunny? Plus, she’s always in trouble at work – her pre-school charges adore her, but their parents don’t 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. There’s only one problem: his brilliant young lab assistant, Pyotr, is about to be deported. And without Pyotr, all would be lost.

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. Kate is furious: this time he’s really asking too much. But will she be able to resist the two men’s touchingly ludicrous campaign to bring her around?
