BATB score: 3/10 💔


Written in 1984 and made into a movie in 1988 (7.3/10 IMDb) - probably hyped up as early times erotic novel/films


Best as: other than the polygamous coitus chapters, the rest of the book may put you to sleep 💤


Best for: literature enthusiasts on classic writing styles and novelist's reflection of life then and there; Milan Kundera's freshness includes love affairs, the Soviet, oppression to conformity, living in exile, and (modern days relatable) so what's the meaning of life?


Best to: that awkward feeling standing in silence in a crowded elevator; reading through this book was kinda like that; slow but fast, light but heavy, anxiously waiting for the ride to end
