Milan Kundera has passed away at the age of 94, after an illness that had plagued him for a long time. He gave so much to literature, so we remind you of some of his books, which you should read at least once in your life:
"The unbearable lightness of being"
The subject of this work talks about the love of Teresa, a woman young and beautiful, who falls in love with the famous surgeon, Tomas. Their marriage is filled with love, but also with the many and irreparable betrayals of Thomas, who thinks that there is a clear division between sex and love. In parallel, the novel shows the love of Sabina, a free-spirited artist, who is Tomas's lover, and on the other hand, the partner of faithful Franc.
"Prank"
The student Ludvik makes a joke, which starts with a sarcastic message sent to a beautiful peer, who does not understand the joke and takes it very seriously. Ludvik is expelled from the party, abandons his studies, works in the mine and for a joke, his life takes a different direction.
"Identity"
Many times we doubt the identity of others, but also our own. Kundera plays with this concept, with the perception of identity and with the love of couples, who do not always know each other.
"Ignorance"
A man and a woman return to their homeland, which they no longer feel like home, as they abandoned it 2 decades ago for various reasons. Thus, a strange feeling is created between them and their compatriots. Their memories from 2 decades ago are no longer exciting and similar. Absence, oblivion and everything else, in a single novel.
"A meeting"
Paul Valéry u përzgjodh që të ulej në mes të njerëzve “të pavdekshëm” të Akademisë Franceze, megjithëse s’kishte ndonjë konsideratë për romanin apo shprehinë. Por shumë shpejt, konceptet e tij ndryshojnë, rrjedha e jetës së tij po ashtu.
“Ngadalësia”
Një natë e ngadaltë vere, dy histori joshjeje, të cilat nuk ndodhin sot apo nesër, por me një diferencë prej dy shekujsh. Ato ndërthuren dhe përkunden mes situatave komike dhe sublime. “Ngadalësia” vjen si një fantazi e ëmbël dhe një reflektim i magjishëm i jetës që ndodh tani, e cila çuditërisht paralelizohet me atë të një epoke të harruar.
“Valsi i lamtumirës”
When the famous jazz artist receives the news that a young nurse with whom he spent the night is pregnant with his child, a crazy story begins, a black and anxious comedy that holds you hostage. The jealous wife of the artist smells the new betrayal, the nurse meets a gynecologist who can help her abort, a saintly man and Don Juan at the same time become entangled in a web of mystery and unusual events.
"Immortality"
Anjeza, a married woman experiences some unproven feelings from her husband, daughter and sister. On the other hand, Götja, married and old, falls in love with Betina, newly married and 2 decades younger than him.
