About this product
Product Information
Pulitzer Prize winner and American master Anne Tyler brings us an inspired, witty and irresistible contemporary take on one of Shakespeare's most beloved comedies. 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?

Reviews
Praise for Anne Tyler and Her Work: "Everyone loves Anne Tyler."-- San Francisco Chronicle "You are involved before you even notice you were paying attention . . . Her feel for character is so keen that even hardened metafictionalists [who] would happily fry the whole notion of 'character' for breakfast are reduced to the role of helpless gossips, swapping avid hunches about the possible fates of the characters."- Tom Shone, The New Yorker "Tyler's eye and ear for familial give and take is unerring, her humanity irresistible. You'll want to turn back to the first chapter the moment you finish the last."-- People "[A] novel by Anne Tyler is cause for celebration."-- Caroline Moore, The Sunday Telegraph "Tyler reveals, with unobtrusive mastery, the disconcerting patchwork of comedy and pathos that marks all our lives."-- Michael Dirda, Wall Street Journal "Over five decades of exuberant shape-shifting across the fictional landscape, Anne Tyler has cut the steady swath of a literary stalwart, writing novel after novel whose most memorable characters inhabit a cosmos all their own."-- Julia Glass, New York Times Book Review "Anne Tyler never disappoints . . . Her insights about life, love, aging, marriage, siblings, grief, and unexpected happiness grow richer and deeper with each passing year and book."-- Pittsburgh Post-Gazette "Anne Tyler has no peer. Her books just keep getting better and better."-- Anita Shreve "The wonder of Anne Tyler is how consistently clear-eyed and truthful she remains about the nature of families and especially marriage." -- Los Angeles Times, Praise for Anne Tyler and Her Work: "Everyone loves Anne Tyler."-- San Francisco Chronicle "Without Anne Tyler, American fiction would be an immeasurably bleaker place."-- Newsday "Tyler's characters are thoroughly three-dimensional. They are our own families; they are ourselves; and it is our own desperate desire to understand the people we love, as well as the people who hurt us and whom we hurt, that keeps us reading with fervor."-- The Boston Globe "You are involved before you even notice you were paying attention . . . Her feel for character is so keen that even hardened metafictionalists [who] would happily fry the whole notion of 'character' for breakfast are reduced to the role of helpless gossips, swapping avid hunches about the possible fates of the characters."- Tom Shone, The New Yorker "Tyler's eye and ear for familial give and take is unerring, her humanity irresistible.
