My Russian Grandmother and Her American Vacuum Cleaner: A Family Memoir, written by Meir Shalev, is a heartwarming story about family ties, housekeeping, and the power of storytelling set in Nahal, the village where the author was born. At the center of the narrative is the author's grandmother, Tonia, a fierce and determined woman who immigrated to Palestine from Russia in 1923 and brought her strong sense of cleanliness and order with her. Grandma Tonia lived in a constant state of battle with what she saw as the family's greatest enemy - dirt - and was never seen without a cleaning rag over her shoulder. She received visitors outdoors and only allowed the most privileged guests to enter her spotless home. This quirky character and her regulations come richly to life in a narrative that explores the conflicts and visions of the family in every respect.
«Моя русская бабушка и ее американский пылесос: семейные мемуары», написанная Меиром Шалевым, - это трогательная история о семейных связях, ведении домашнего хозяйства и силе повествования в Нахале, деревне, где родился автор. В центре повествования - бабушка автора, Тония, свирепая и решительная женщина, иммигрировавшая в Палестину из России в 1923 году и принесшая с собой сильное чувство чистоты и порядка. Бабушка Тония жила в постоянном боевом состоянии с тем, что считала величайшим врагом семьи - грязью - и никогда не была замечена без чистящей тряпки через плечо. Она принимала посетителей на открытом воздухе и разрешала входить в свой безупречный дом только самым привилегированным гостям. Этот причудливый персонаж и ее правила богато оживают в повествовании, которое исследует конфликты и видения семьи во всех отношениях.
