The Book of Laughter and Forgetting: 'A masterpiece' (Salman Rushdie)
Milan Kundera
Kundera whirls through comedy and tragedy towards his central question: how does a person, any person, live today? In constructing his answer, he writes of politics, sex, literature, modern man's alienation - and of their antidotes: laughter and forgetting.
