The Unbearable Lightness of Being

«The Unbearable Lightness of Being» by Milan Kundera — one of the gems of 20th-century prose. The story of the lives of two married couples unfolds in Prague in the 1960s. The author leads the reader through the complex, tangled labyrinths of the relationship between a man and a woman, where their past and present, intimate and public, fantasy and reality intertwine. The book has a lot of everything — politics, philosophy, history, human relationships, but most of all, it contains love. Lightness is not always a blessing, and heaviness, no matter how many problems it brings, gives our lives fullness and meaning. What choice will the characters make in the hope of finally finding happiness?
