A lentidão by Milan Kundera

challenging reflective medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

I was hoping to like this one more, as I liked the idea of following 2 pairs of lovers in different times, but it turns out that we hardly follow the pair from 2 centuries ago, although their story might have been more interesting, and as for the rest we are stuck between a modern pair that are basically imbeciles, and the philosophical rumninations of the author. It bored me a lot.
Fortunately, this is a short story  and it wasn't difficult to read.
