Slowness

Readers are taken through a midsummer's night in which two tales of seduction, separated by more than 200 years, interweave and oscillate between the sublime and the ridiculous. They provide merely a narrative framework for Kundera's novel, within which is condensed existential analysis.

Desconcertat si fermecat, cititorul il urmareste printr-o noapte de vara in care doua povesti de seductie, despartite in timp de peste doua sute de ani, se impletesc si oscileaza intre sublim si ridicol. Asa cum s-ar astepta cititorii lui Kundera, Slowness este in acelasi timp un formidabil spectacol de analiza existentiala.
