A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian
Nadezhda and Vera's aging father had been sliding into his second childhood, and an alarming new woman had entered his life. Valentina, a bosomy blonde, seemed 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.

Review:
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)
