内容简介

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.

精彩书评

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

《乌克兰拖拉机简史》，看见书名，一定会吓一跳，这是机械史还是小说？没错，这是小说。而且是获得了以为喜剧小说而设的“波灵格大众伍德豪斯奖”（Bollinger Everyman Wodehouse Prize）的作品，同时也入选2005年的布克奖。

　　或许，对于不知道那些历史，或者对那些历史知之甚少的人来说，乌克兰的历史遥远之极，而对于上了年纪的中国人来说，乌克兰又代表什么？从他1991年苏联解体之后它仅次于俄罗斯么？是乌克兰大婶，彪悍的哥萨克，还有乌克兰的大白猪，更有乌克兰大饥荒？对于现在的世界来说，是石油和天然气。乌克兰的作家呢？顶著名的是果戈理，当然还是著名的奥斯特洛夫斯基。在我们开始冷落前苏联和北方那片辽阔土地上的文学之后，几乎是看不见新的作品。现在可以见到的，也仅仅是已经英籍乌克兰裔女作家玛琳娜·柳薇卡这本《乌克兰拖拉机简史》。

　　书中言辞极其幽默俏皮，时不时给书中人物冠以的“离婚专家太太”，“战争宝宝”等绰号，腹黑地点到父亲与瓦伦蒂娜丈夫称呼彼此教名的《战争与和平》式的语言交流，风趣地展现女性各种表里不一的言辞，加上从头至尾夹叙夹议的描述，以及引人入胜的各种“战斗”情节，一步步让读者亲近英籍乌克兰移民曾经的过往岁月，最终明白，原来两姐妹南辕北辙的人生道路源于圣诞节的公车上“那个给妈妈六便士的女人”，从那时候开始，妹妹“变成了一个终身的社会主义者”，而姐姐则“变成了那个穿皮大衣的女人”。更重要的是发现，原来那从乌克兰来的“波提切利的出水维纳斯”瓦伦蒂娜是多么像我们身边那些追逐金钱、既狡猾又愚蠢的“外嫁新娘”，而她那个“他可以成为完美的妻子”的前夫又是多么理想主义的依然东欧化。
