內容簡介

For years, Nadezhda and Vera, two Ukrainian sisters, raised in England by their refugee parents, have had as little as possible to do with each other - and they have their reasons. But now they find they'd better learn how to get along, because since their mother's death their aging father has been sliding into his second childhood, and an alarming new woman has just entered his life. Valentina, a bosomy young synthetic blonde from the Ukraine, seems to think their father is much richer than he is, and she is keen that he leave this world with as little money to his name as possible.If Nadazhda and Vera don't stop her, no one will. But separating their addled and annoyingly lecherous dad from his new love will prove to be no easy feat - Valentina is a ruthless pro and the two sisters swiftly realize that they are mere amateurs when it comes to ruthlessness. As Hurricane Valentina turns the family house upside down, old secrets come falling out, including the most deeply buried one of them all, from the War, the one that explains much about why Nadazhda and Vera are so different. In the meantime, oblivious to it all, their father carries on with the great work of his dotage, a grand history of the tractor.

精彩書評

More than just a jolly romp with political undertones is the way it captures the peculiar flavour of Eastern European immigrant life . . . a very rich mixture indeed, as well as very enjoyable reading.
--The Times

A delightful first novel . . . an understanding of history, a profundity, and yet a lightness of touch, that are a joy . . . funny, touching and completely convincing.
--The Spectator

　　整本書在社會主義和資本主義以及希望的理想主義和現實的金錢主義之間衝突著。不僅僅是社會主義妹妹和資本主義姐姐的衝突，還有理想主義天真父親為代錶的男人們與現實主義“一種廉價的勞動力資源”瓦倫蒂娜為代錶的女人們的衝突，更重要的是捍衛傢庭的兩姐妹與入侵掠奪的瓦倫蒂娜母子之間的衝突。這些衝突之中，突顯瞭世界觀、價值觀、乃至人生觀的衝突，作者精巧地將本質的生理需要和天真的心理需要編織在各種衝突中，近乎完整地展示瞭烏剋蘭人以及東歐斯拉夫人的性格特色。塑造瞭為瞭一己之欲差點一點緻自己嶽母慘遭“肅清”、又因一己之欲幾乎毀掉自己晚年生活的父親，更重要的是因此塑造瞭人生觀價值觀幾乎完全相悖的兩姊妹，從他們的身上讓讀者看見瞭那段不堪迴首的曆史，也由此達成瞭兩姊妹和解後的全新的平和生活。
