BOOK: The Unbearable lightness of Being by Milan Kundera
GENRE- Fiction, Novel

The Unbearable Lightness of Being is a 1984 philosophical novel by Milan Kundera that explores the lives of two couples—Tomas, Tereza, Sabina, and Franz—during the 1968 Prague Spring and the subsequent Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia. The novel uses their interconnected relationships to examine themes of love, sex, politics, and existence, particularly the tension between the "lightness" of a life with no consequences and the "weight" of commitment and meaning.
