Pictorial paperback cover illustration by David Miller in very good appears unused condition. 
Paperback in good condition, some scuffing to cover. Jonathan Oliver employs a husky-voiced tone that proves the right match for this darkish story, one that requires of listeners a dollop of patience. Set first in Czechoslovakia, then in Switzerland, Kundera's story tells the sometimes laborious story of a womanizing Czech surgeon forced to flee the Russian invasion and take on menial roles, giving his passion for the flesh a slighly different perspective, as he is no longer a doctor but just a window-washer. His relationship with this current female-of-choice, the interesting and puzzling Tereza, is at the center of the novel. Oliver is good, very good, pausing with great effect, having just the right amount of low-key drama and contemplative musing in his narration. He's a good fit for a book that not everyone will like, but those who stay the course will generally be pleased they did. T.H. (c) AudioFile, Portland, Maine. Jim Miller, Newsweek "Kundera has raised the novel of ideas to a new level of dreamlike lyricism and emotional intensity. "

Translated from the Czech by Michael Henry Heim. 'There are novels which are tragic, or entertaning, and this one s both. There are very few that give a fresh perspective on existence, and force the reader to reassess his own life and attitudes. ' (Sunday Times) 314 pp.
