Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera
The Unbearable Lightness of Being is a story of irreconcilable love and infidelities in which Milan Kundera addresses himself to the nature of twentieth-century 'Being', offering a wide range of brilliant and amusing philosophical speculations. First published in 1984, Kundera's masterly novel encompasses the extremes of comedy and tragedy and was at once hailed by critics as a contemporary classic.
'Read this book; here is a writer who really matters' Malcolm Bradbury; 'The Unbearable Lightness of Being is a work of the boldest mastery, originality and richness.' Vanity Fair; 'A dark and brilliant achievement.' Ian McEwan.
Milan Kundera was born in Brno, Czechoslovakia and has lived in France for almost thirty years. His other novels include The Joke, The Book of Laughter and Forgetting and Identity.
