Helpful Score: 2


A book that crosses two periods in time with a parallel story involving one castle. The men meet in passing and feel an unspoken comaraderie. The narrator directs us through the numerous characters which is an understatement to the depth and dimension of the individuals Kundera develop. There is a hint of reality when the narrator's wife calls him by the author's pet name used by his own wife. Fun, fast read worth the time to explore.
