Varolmanın Dayanılmaz Hafifliği

On Saturday and Sunday, he had the feeling that the sweet lightness of existence had risen from the depths of the future and reached him. Monday was hit with a weight the like of which he had never known before. The tons of steel of Russian tanks would be nothing compared to this. Because there is nothing heavier in the world than compassion.

Milan Kundera's best-known novel, The Unbearable Lightness of Being, became one of the contemporary classics as soon as it was published, and is one of the most powerful narratives of the last century. Kundera questions the familiar novel characters, who carry strong thoughts and life rules behind them, with Tomas, the author of his novel, in which he investigates the non-reaction against reaction, the consistent and virtuous aspects of determination versus indecision. It also tells the story of the Soviet occupation of Czechoslovakia in the background. After all, social prejudices, just like people, are ultimately condemned to indecision and the "unbearable lightness of existence".
