About the book from Dr. Rose:
The Unbearable Lightness of Being weaves together the stories of four individuals whose fates are constrained by psychic patterns formed in early childhood. The novel sets up complex relationships between these characters as if to test whether love can help an individual evolve beyond the baggage inherited in youth. Set against the backdrop of the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968, Kundera’s tale offers a searing portrait of the society-wide crisis that contours his characters’ private dramas.
