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

　　這部詞典的另一個特點是它提供很多基本的語法錶。在一開始（IV – XXVI頁）就有縮寫錶，關於發音、重音、長音的說明，名詞變格錶，動詞變位錶，一目瞭然。

《烏剋蘭拖拉機簡史》，看見書名，一定會嚇一跳，這是機械史還是小說？沒錯，這是小說。而且是獲得瞭以為喜劇小說而設的“波靈格大眾伍德豪斯奬”（Bollinger Everyman Wodehouse Prize）的作品，同時也入選2005年的布剋奬。

在微博上看見介紹，讀瞭點譯文，覺得好玩，就買瞭原版。企鵝的紙皮書，小32開。隨手翻瞭下，文字似乎比較淺顯。封麵的圖是故意印邪的嗎？收到的也是如此。

這種讀物就是要迅速買下，否則不好找啊
