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

　　“拉丁语—英语词典”虽然不太厚，只有236页，但其词汇量相当大，完全能满足初学者的需要。“英语—拉丁语词典”的部分（192页）能帮助学生造拉丁语句子或进行翻译工作，而且在一定程度上也起到“同义词词典”的作用。比如查英语的good就有拉丁语的bonus, probus, idoneus, aptus；查grand就发现拉丁语有很多同义词：amplus, illustris, egregius, lautus, magnificus, grandis, sublimis。多查多学这些同义词和近义词能丰富词汇，并且培养拉丁语和英语口才及优美和准确的表达方式。

　　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。
