![]() ![]() He has sex with them and leaves because he needs to be by himself after the act. However, he has this emptiness inside himself, even though he is with Tereza, but he longs for other women. ![]() Tereza and Tomas move in together and he even holds her hand at night, which he never did with other women. The war goes on and so does Tomas’ lust for women. Things change in Prague at this time when the Soviets are marching in and sent in their tanks. One day however, he meets Tereza and falls deeply in love with her. It seems he needs to do this because he has no meaningful life and all these affairs give him freedom of some sort. Tomas is a Czech brain surgeon, an intellectual and has many affairs. “The Unbearable Lightness of Being” is a love story that took place in Prague in 1968. This book has been on my bookshelf for a long time and I do re-read it here and there, simply because it is so well written and the story is amazing. I would like to share a review of Milan Kundera’s “The Unbearable Lightness of Being”. “When the heart speaks, the mind finds it indecent to object.” ― Milan Kundera, The Unbearable Lightness of Being ![]()
