马不停蹄地读着这本《A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian》。课间读,上课前的半个小时也在读,有一次还差点迟到。作者简直有种写侦探小说的节奏感,一点一点地挖着来自过去的线索,终于在第三十章里真相大白。其实从第十三章的结尾处开始,父母隐瞒着Nadia的过去就...
评分有这样一个国家,被外来的极左独裁者压榨得奄奄一息,几近一无所有。接着传说中的春天来了,外来的右翼自由主义又跑来攫取了她仅剩的财富和人才,这样之后真心是一无所有了。在这样一个废墟上,仅剩的普通人们在争吵中重建,左倾被骂为斯大林,右倾被骂为豺狼,然后渐渐学着和...

评分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...
评分第245页,倒数第二行—— “我女儿瓦伦蒂娜。她是个社会工作者。” 虽然说这里面的名字不怎么记,但是他女儿的名字不应该叫“娜迪娅”或者“娜杰日达”么?“瓦伦蒂娜”不是他那个大乳乌克兰女郎的名字么? 我倒还真是因为书名字面上的含义对这本书感兴趣的,没想到只是一部小...

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.
昨天我半夜终于看完了这本书。过去的荒谬配上喜剧的外衣让人更加心酸了。“活下去就是胜利”
评分我最喜欢的角色其实是Vera 像valentina这样的人最终的结局应该是很悲惨的 我觉得作者他爸一直都是疯的
评分Good, though not striking. The pain is there but it's too generational to be personal, and Nadia is just too much a cool observer. Nikolai reminds me of Jim Thorne, a borderline eccentric with an appetite for the wonderfully useless knowledges and an almost legendary past, quite likable, while Vera and Valentina poses as such charismatic tigeresses
评分开头特别奇特,后来觉得有点像天涯极品帖,这样。
评分记忆会帮人保护自己,记住相对的幸福,改造和柔和那些残酷的事实。在老师推荐下读的这本书。一个家庭内部的支撑力凝聚力,经历过变故才被塑造的世界观,个人的坚持和执拗,都在这本书里。把现实和记忆融合的超好,写作的方式又生动有趣,好看极了
