THE UNBEARABLE LIGHTNESS OF BEING – Romance, by Milan Kundera

There are four characters (two women and two men), where the events are intertwined, embracing all the colors of love, and also the dependence of a woman by her man, along with the fear of abandonment and infidelity. Yes, these are the existential parentheses around the adaptation of all our actions, emotional and social. Imagine reading a novel, which its pages tell you about the invasion of Czechoslovakia by the Russians, but also the colors of the Prague Spring. This is part of what you can find in the pages of “The Unbearable Lightness of Being” by Milan Kundera. The stupidity comes from having an answer for everything. The wisdom comes from having, for everything, a question “. Although it may seem trivial, the colors of feelings – between Tomas and Tereza – are the usual ones: he loves his job, but also women; she would like an exclusive story. Between Franz and Sabine (he is married, she is his lover), you read something severely unaffordable, and that thing is inside Sabine. You’ll have to read the last page, really, to understand what is desirable and what is unsustainable. Perhaps you, like one of the protagonists of the novel, discover the existential value of the interiorization, discovering the wonderful uniqueness of your life. http://www.amazon.com/Unbearable-Lightness-Being-Milan-Kundera/dp/0060932139
