　　最沉重的负担压迫着我们，让我屈服于它，把我们压到地上，但在历代的爱情诗中，女人总渴望承受一个男性身体的重量。于是，最沉重的负担同时也成了最强盛的生命力的影像。负担越重，我们的生命越贴近大地，它就越真切实在。
　　相反，当负担完全缺失，人就会变得比空气还轻，就会飘起来，就会远离大地和地上的生命，人也就只是一个半真的存在，其运动也会变得自由而没有意义。
　　那么，到底选择什么？是重还是轻？

内容简介

In this novel - a story of irreconcilable loves and infidelities - Milan Kundera addresses himself to the nature of twentieth-century 'Being' In a world in which lives are shaped by irrevocable choices and by fortuitous events, a world in which everything occurs but once, existence seems to lose its substance, its weight. We feel, says the novelist, 'the unbearable lightness of being' - not only as the consequence of our private acts but also in the public sphere, and the two inevitably intertwine.

Juxtaposing Prague, Geneva, Thailand and the United States, this masterly novel encompasses the extremes of comedy and tragedy, and embraces, it seems, all aspects of human existence. It offers a wide range of brilliant and amusing philosophical speculations and it descants on a variety of styles.

　　男主人公托马斯是一个外科医生，因为婚姻失败，既渴望女人又畏惧女人，因此发展出一套外遇守则来应付他众多的情妇。但自从他爱上了餐厅的女侍——特丽莎，他开始违反自己的原则，甚至娶她为妻。但同时托马斯灵肉分离的想法丝毫没有改变，依然游移在情妇之间，对全心爱他的特丽莎是一种伤害。特丽莎经常在极度不安的梦靥中醒来，经常猜忌与怀有恐怖想像。此时捷克政治动乱不安，在苏黎世的一位权威医生的邀请下，两人决定去那里生活。但是面对陌生环境的不安与丈夫仍然与情妇私通，特丽莎决定离开，回到祖国。但是命运与抉择让托马斯回去找她，此后两人没有再分离。他们意识到在一起是快乐的，是折磨与悲凉里的快乐，彼此是生命中甜美的负担。后来他们死于一场车祸。
　　萨宾娜是一个画家，曾经是托马斯的情妇之一，也是特丽莎妒忌的对象。萨宾娜一生不断选择背叛，选择让自己的人生没有责任而轻盈的生活。她讨厌忠诚与任何讨好大众的媚俗行为，但是这样的背叛让她感到自己人生存在于虚无当中。弗兰茨是被萨宾娜背叛的情夫之一，他因为她而放弃自己坚持的婚姻与忠诚，但是由于萨宾娜的背弃，让弗兰茨发现自己过去对于婚姻的执着是可笑的，纯属多余的假想，他的妻子只是自己对于母亲理想的投射。离婚后，自由自立的单身生活为他生命带来新的契机，并且了解萨宾娜只是他对革命与冒险生活的追随。后来他与他的学生相恋，在实际参与一场虚伪游行活动后，意识到自己真正的幸福是留在他的学生旁边。一场突然抢劫中，弗兰茨因为想展现自己的勇气而蛮力抵抗，却遭到重击，在厌恶妻子的陪伴下，无言的死于病榻上。

-- Janet Malcolm, "New York Review of Books"

-- Jim Miller, "Newsweek"

"Kundera is a virtuoso . . . A work of the boldest mastery, originality, and richness."

　　他的作品使我坚信人类一定会生存下去，世界一定会生存下去，我全心全意在这个世界上所信仰、寻求和热望的一切都将恢复其人性的面貌。

精彩书摘

[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] "Id prefer to remain a mystery. I never like to give my background and, anyway, I make it all up different every time I'm asked," Andy Warhol said. "It's not just that it's part of my image not to tell anything, it's just that I forget what I said the day before, and I have to make it all up over again." The man described as "a serious artist whose posture was unseriousness" called himself "a deeply superficial person." He frustrated those who wanted to know more about him: "Just look at the surface of my paintings and films and me, and there I am. There's nothing behind it."
