Librarian's note: There is an Alternate Cover Edition for this edition of this book here. In this novel - a story of irreconcilable loves and infidelities - Milan Kundera addresses himself to the nature of twentieth-century 'Being' In a world in which lives are shaped by irrevocable choices and by fortuitous events, a world in which everything occurs but once, existence seems to lose its substance, its weight. We feel, says the novelist, 'the unbearable lightness of being' - not only as the consequence of our private acts but also in the public sphere, and the two inevitably intertwine. Juxtaposing Prague, Geneva, Thailand and the United States, this masterly novel encompasses the extremes of comedy and tragedy, and embraces, it seems, all aspects of human existence. It offers a wide range of brilliant and amusing philosophical speculations and it descants on a variety of styles. In this classic novel Kundera draws together the Czechoslovakia of the Prague Spring and the Russian invasion, the philosophy of Nietzsche, and the love affairs of a number of heartbreakingly familiar characters.

The unbearable lightness of being
This review is sung by Freddy Mercury to the tune of Bohemian Rhapsody.
Is this a fiction?
Is this just fantasy?
Not just a narrative
Of Czech infidelity.
Reader four eyes
Look onto the page and read
I'm just a Prague boy, I've sex with empathy
Because I'm easy come, easy go
A little high, little low
Any Soviet era Czech knows, unbearable lightness of being
Good Reads, just read a book
Put a bookmark on the page
Played my audio now it's read
Good Reads, the book had just begun
But now I've read all Milan had to say
Good Reads, ooo
Didn't mean to make you sigh
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow
Carry on, carry on, unbearable lightness of being
Too late, this book is done
A short book no need to break the spine
Body's just egalitarian
Good read everybody - I'll say so
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
Good Reads, ooo (any Soviet era Czech knows)
I don't want the book to end
I sometimes wish I'd never started to read at all
I read a little dialogue from of a man
Tomas, Tomas will you make love to Teresa?
Thunderbolt and lightning very nearly enticing me
Repetition! Repetition!
Repetition! Repetition!
Repetition Kundera- Metaphor!
But I'm just a Prague boy and many women love me
He's just a Prague boy from a Czech family
Flair is his prose from this virtuosity
Easy come easy go will you let me go
Bohemia! No we will not let you go - let him go
Bohemia! We will not let you go - let him go
Bohemia! We will not let you go let me go
Will not let you go let me go (never)
Never let you go let me go
Never let me go ooo
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Oh Milan Kundera, Milan Kundera says its so
Premier Brezhnev has a gulag put aside for me
For me
For me
[Brian May melts our faces with a blistering guitar solo while Wayne and Garth head bang in a Pacer]
Soviet tanks can occupy and eat our pie
Naked women can sing and leave me to die
Oh Milan, Kant German sex Milan
Just gotta go Swiss just gotta get right outta here
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah
Unbearable lightness
Anyone can read
Unbearable lightness unbearable lightness
of being
Any Soviet era Czech knows
