1.0

This is an absolute trash of a book. There are many mentions of a main character wanting to r@pe some woman. The characters (men) misogynistic and all the women who are progressive or feminists in this book (well, let's be honest, ALL women) are presented as stupid and... and their only purpose is to serve as a pleasure "device" for men.
I also hate the author's obsession with sex, not to mention the scene when the children are giving pleasure to a GROWN woman. Disgusting.
The writing is trashy, it gave me huge Colleen Hoover vibes. 
And Kundera's "witt" is more like a pseudo-witt.
