COLLINS CLASSICS : THE TAMING OF THE SCREW PB A

HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of best-loved, essential classics. Bianca is beautiful and demure, with a plethora of wood-be suitors, but marriage is forbidden until her older sister Katherina finds a suitable match. The hitch? Fiery Katherina has sworn to deny the hand or demands of any would-be suitor. That is, until she meets her match in the wily Petrucio. As Katherina s own sharp tongue is met by Petrucio s feigned cruelty, the shrew apparently capitulates. Or does she? This controversial comic tale, famously adapted into Cole Porter s Kiss Me Kate and 10 Things I Hate About You, has divided and amused audiences for over 400 years in an unforgettable battle of wits.
