Publisher's Synopsis
If every woman on Earth gave her partner a copy of this book, broken hearts and failed marriages would be a thing of the past; no one would go to war because they'd be too happy staying at home. From the Jamestown Shakespeare Manuscripts comes the earliest and greatest win-win romance of all time-witty, warm, and scrumptious. Said to have been written "by Lady Porcigliano" and "translated by Anne Cook-Bacon," the Taming of the Pooch features the courtship of Caterina di Baptista of Padua, a romantic who teaches her Petruchio everything that every woman ever wished her man knew about love, and he's an excellent student. Recovered at last from the dustbin of male-chauvinist history, Taming of the Pooch is the most transformative, the most heart-warming, loins-moistening, tear-jerking, and ultimately satisfying true romance since Adam and Eve. Also, the funniest.
Hint to husbands and boyfriends, who also ought to read this book: The male gaze alone cannot unlock the mysteries of the female heart. The man who desires both a relationship, and pleasure, cannot just look at his love-interest with lust in his eyes and an erection in his trousers. He must look at what she has been reading lately. If your bed-partner loves nothing better, for a headache, than to curl up with a romance novel, try moving a few of those paperback bodice-rippers from her side of the bed to yours, and read them a.s.a.p. You may be quite surprised to learn what kind of man your lover was dreaming about, the last time she lay there waiting for you to finish up.
