Synopsis "The Book of Laughter and Forgetting"

'This book is a novel in the form of variations. The various parts follow each other like the various stages of a voyage leading into the interior of a theme, the interior of a thought, the interior of a single, unique situation the understanding of which recedes from my sight into the distance. It is a book about laughter and about forgetting, about forgetting and about Prague, about Prague and about the angels.' The Book of Laughter and Forgetting is the most secret of Kundera's novels. This new translation is the first to be fully authorized by Milan Kundera.

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.
