She Received Visitors Outdoors. She Allowed Only The Most Privileged Guests To Enter Her Spotless House. Hilarious And Touching, Grandma Tonia And Her Regulations Come Richly To Life In A Narrative That Circles Around The Arrival Into The Familys Dusty Agricultural Midst Of The Big, Shiny American Sweeper Sent As A Gift By Greatuncle Yeshayahu (He Who Had Shockingly Emigrated To The Sinful Capitalist Heaven Of Los Angeles!). America, To Little Meir And To His Forebears, Was A Land Of Hedonism And Enchanting Progress; Of Tempting Luxuries, Dangerous Music, And Degenerate Gumchewing; And Of Women With Painted Fingernails. The Sweeper, A Stealth Weapon From Grandpa Aharons American Brother Meant To Beguile The Hardworking Socialist Household With A Bit Of American Ease, Was Symbolic Of The Conflicts And Visions Of The Family In Every Respect.The Fate Of Tonias Svieeperrrhidden Away For Decades In A Spotless Closedoff Bathroom After Its Initial Useis A Family Mystery That Shalev Determines To Solve. The Result, In This Cheerful Translation By Evan Fallenberg, Is Pure Delight, As Shalev Brings To Life The Obsessive But Loving Tonia, The Pioneers Who Gave His Childhood Its Spirit Of Wonder, And The Grit And Humor Of People Building Evernew Lives.
