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.

在两个平胸女儿妒嫉大胸继母的勾心斗角中笑着看完了这本书。没有期待中的那么好,也没有想象中的那么烂。合上书,想象着向太阳敬礼的画面,确乎感到一丝温暖。 人生本来就是由无数的乐与苦而组成。那包括对兔子的肺吹气来观察生命是怎么呼吸的,那包括一家人醉倒在地窖里的自...

評分读捷克作家伊凡•克里玛早年在集中营的回忆录,印象最深的不是杀戮和恐惧,而是一个孩子颇为“幸福”的生活。这里的幸福当然是相对而言,但是不得不承认,孩子眼中的世界与成人世界存有巨大差距。整个世界的苦难瞬间坍塌的时候,孩子的目光也会聚焦于苦难之外的事物。对他们...
