At its best it makes one reflect and soak in the interesting mindset of the charachters. At times the pretentiousness of Kundera shines a bit through, but he has good reason to be pretentious. Some of the presented in the book are very well fleshed out and some are not, but most of them are interesting. On the other hand there was a metaohor about how the individuals difference from each other is the same as a one hundreth of a millisecond, and this metaphor is to forced for my liking, and there are a lot of similar forced metaphors in this book. To conclude though it was interesting to be in the mind of these charachters
