It must be twenty years ago since I read this book and it's interesting to me (also an emigrant/immigrant) that the character which I remember most clearly is Sabina. Thank you for writing this review and for reminding me about The Unbearable Lightness of Being.

Thanks, Lisa, for reading my review. There’s something powerful about Milan Kundera’s work that lingers long after you’ve finished it. Sabina is the character I relate to most.

Excellent comments, Shideh! I am sure I read this book but it was many years ago. Now I am inspired to re-read it. 💙
