Current Affairs Twenty years since its first publication in English Milan Kundera's "The Unbearable Lightness of Being" is still waiting to be published in the Czech Republic
The novelist Milan Kundera is probably the best-known contemporary Czech author in the world. Next week the British publisher Faber and Faber is putting out a special hardback edition of his "The Unbearable Lightness of Being" to commemorate the 20th anniversary of its first publication in English. Strangely enough, the Czech original of the book has never been published in Milan Kundera's native country.
