About This Book
In one of the finer modern ironies of the life-imitates-art sort, the country
that Kundera seemed to be writing about when he talked about Czechoslovakia is,
thanks to the latest political redefinitions, no longer precisely there. This
kind of disappearance and reappearance is, partly, what Kundera explores in The
Book of Laughter and Forgetting. In this polymorphous work -- now a novel, now
autobiography, now a philosophical treatise -- Kundera discusses life, music,
sex, philosophy, literature and politics in ways that are rarely politically
correct, never classifiable but always original, entertaining and definitely
brilliant.
