thewordsdevourer 's review for:
The Unbearable Lightness of Being
by Milan Kundera
slow-paced
Strong character development:
No
Loveable characters:
No
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
a complex--and complexly structured--philosophizing novel w/ thought-provoking, brow-raising ideas + ruminations that has quite a bit of truth and wisdom, and offers a fascinating study on the complexity of humans, in addition to spot-on, if a bit ironic, depictions of american imperialism, leftist self-righteousness, etc. def didnt understand everything, but i do get why this is considered a contemporary classic.
