Fithri: The Unbearable lightness of Being

I have a weakness for books that deal with the human condition. ‘The Unbearable Lightness of Being’ was the fourth book I read from Milan Kundera, and it easily landed itself into the top of my fiction favourites. Kundera’s writing isn’t the simplest, and his passion for the philosophical might tend to overwhelm, but his ability to create stark characters grappling with their own sense of reality and life is what makes him one of my favourite authors. A must read for anyone who’s looking for a refreshing and real insight into the complexities of the human mind.
