NOTE: the event is held at Bricelta.

Please read the book before attending the event :-)

This book was recommended in a previous event of our meetups about love. It's a 20th century masterpiece from Czech litterature, and has a philosophical bent that seems like a good fit for the group.

Here's the excerpt from Goodreads: "In The Unbearable Lightness of Being, Milan Kundera tells the story of a young woman in love with a man torn between his love for her and his incorrigible womanizing and one of his mistresses and her humbly faithful lover. This magnificent novel juxtaposes geographically distant places, brilliant and playful reflections, and a variety of styles, to take its place as perhaps the major achievement of one of the world’s truly great writers."

It's relatively short and has a good rating on goodreads.
