  • Description

    Milan Kundera's sixth novel springs from a casual gesture of a woman to her swimming instructor, a gesture that creates a character in the mind of a writer named Kundera. Like Flaubert's Emma or Tolstoy's Anna, Kundera's Agnès becomes an object of fascination, of indefinable longing. From that character springs a novel, a gesture of the imagination that both embodies and articulates Milan Kundera's supreme mastery of the novel and its purpose: to explore thoroughly the great themes of existence.

    An astounding feat

    One thought that the readability of a novel was directly proportional to the sum total of the degree of tightness of its plot, to the degree of assiduousness with which the characters’ interplay had been guided & controlled, to the degree of curiosity that the storyline could arouse and to the degree of the sense of satisfaction that the final denouement could provide, and that one has been made to look like an idiot. Here is a novel with no plot and no storyline, and the characters are only ...
