The Ultimate Intimacy by Ivan Klima

On the day his mother dies, a beautiful stranger come to hear Protestant pastor Daniel Vedra preach. Having lived in Prague during the Communist regime- under constant suspicion and interrogation- Daniel's life now seems easier and fuller than ever before. But as the relationship that develops between the highly respected clergyman and another man's wife reintroduces Daniel to intimacy, so it come to threaten everything he has lived for: his family, his vocation and his future.
Ivan Klima was born in 1931 in Prague, where he now lives, and was editor of the journal of the Czech Writers' Union during the Prague Spring. He is the author of many plays, stories and novels, including Waiting for the Dark, Waiting for the Light, The Ultimate Intimacy and My Golden Trades, and a non-fiction book, The Spirit of Prague, all of which are published by Granta Books. His work, which is now published worldwide, was once banned in his own country.
