A tristeza era a forma e a felicidade era o conteúdo. A felicidade preenchia o espaço do conteúdo

Lovely, taunting, nauseating... Happiness lies in repetition; repetition is paradise; humans are unhappy because our time moves only in a straight line. Given such dark themes and the political tsunamis of 20th-century communism, I'm surprised by the joyful (or at least, apathetic) tone of Kundera. For some reason I see a lot of Slavoj Zizek in him :)

Hated the characters in a bad way and didn't care about them.
