In 1984, the masterpiece by Milan Kundera, The Unbearable Lightness of Being, was first published in France. It is a novel centered on the Prague Spring of 1968 and on a people’s hope for freedom.
Have we truly understood what Kundera was trying to tell us? I believe we have not.

What is the Grand March?
And what does it really lead to?
Who decides where conviction ends…

Milan Kundera warned us.
