Synopsis "Testaments Betrayed: An Essay in Nine Parts"

A brilliant and thought-provoking essay from one of the twentieth century's masters of fiction, Testaments Betrayed is written like a novel: the same characters appear and reappear throughout the nine parts of the book, as do the principal themes that preoccupy the author. Kundera is a passionate defender of the moral rights of the artist and the respect due a work of art and its creator's wishes. The betrayal of both--often by their most passionate proponents--is one of the key ideas that informs this strikingly original and elegant book.

Milan Kundera (/'mɪlan 'kundɛra/ Brno, 1 de abril de 1929-París, 11 de julio de 2023)​ fue un novelista, escritor de cuentos cortos, dramaturgo, ensayista y poeta checo.​ Desde 1975 residió con su esposa en Francia, cuya ciudadanía adquirió en 1987.

La obra más conocida de Kundera es La insoportable levedad del ser. Antes de la Revolución de Terciopelo de 1989, el régimen comunista de Checoslovaquia prohibió sus libros. Llevó una vida de bajo perfil y rara vez hablaba con los medios. Se pensaba que era un candidato para el Premio Nobel de Literatura y también fue nominado para otros premios.

Recibió el Premio Jerusalén de 1985, el Premio Austriaco de Literatura Europea en 1987 y el Premio Herder de 2000. En 2021, recibió la Orden al Mérito de manos del presidente de Eslovenia.
