Summary: Milan Kundera's sixth novel springs from a casual gesture of a woman to her swimming instructor. a gesture that creates a character in the mind of a writer named Kundera. Like Flaubert's Emma or Tolstoy's Anna. Kundera's Agnes becomes an object of fascination. of indefinable longing. From that character springs a novel. a gesture of the imagination that both embodies and articulates Milan Kundera's supreme mastery of the novel and its purpose; to explore thoroughly the great. themes of existence. Subjects: Allegories -- Self-perception -- Fiction -- Czech fiction.Weight in Kg appr.: Keywords: Price: EUR 65.00 = appr. US$ 70.65 Seller: MW Books - Book number: 204582 |
