'A cult figure.' Guardian'A dark and brilliant achievement.' Ian
McEwan'Shamelessly clever ... Exhilaratingly subversive and funny.'
Independent'A modern classic ... As relevant now as when it was
first published.' John BanvilleA young woman is in love with a
successful surgeon, a man torn between his love for her and his
womanising. His mistress, a free-spirited artist, lives her life as
a series of betrayals, while her other lover stands to lose
everything because of his noble qualities. In a world where lives
are shaped by choices and events, and everything occurs but once,
existence seems to lose its substance and weight - and we feel 'the
unbearable lightness of being'.The Unbearable Lightness of Being
encompasses passion and philosophy, infidelity and ideas, the
Prague Spring and modern America, political acts and private
desires, comedy and tragedy - in fact, all of human existence. What
readers are saying:'Some books change your mind, some change your
heart, the very best change your whole world ... A mighty piece of
work, that will shape your life forever.''One of the best books
I've ever read ...A book about love and life, full of surprises.
Beautiful.''This book is going to change your life ... It
definitely leaves you with a hangover after you're done reading.''A
must read - loved it, such beautiful observations on life, love and
sexuality.''Kundera writes about love as if in a trance so the
beauty of it is enchanting and dreamy ...Will stay with you
forever.''A beautiful novel that helps you understand life better
... Loved it.''One of those rare novels full of depth and insight
into the human condition ... Got me reading Camus and Sartre.''One
of the best books I have ever read ...An intellectual love story if
ever there was one.'

V januári 1965 Gabriel García Márquez cestoval s rodinou na
dovolenku do Acapulca, keď odrazu dostal nápad. Začul vravu
mestečka Macondo. Už vedel, ako napíše svoj nový román. Vrátil sa
domov, zatvoril sa do pracovne, a keď z nej po osemnástich
mesiacoch vyšiel, v ruke držal 1 300 strán rukopisu a bol šťastný.
Román Sto rokov samoty prvý raz vyšiel v roku 1967, Márquez mal
vtedy 39 rokov a svet si navždy zapamätal jeho meno. Dnes je román
považovaný za jedno z najvýznamnejších diel latinskoamerickej a
svetovej literatúry. Je komponovaný z množstva reálnych aj
fantazijných epizód a rozpráva o pôvabných i krutých príhodách
šiestich generácií rodiny Buendíovcov z fiktívneho mestečka
Macondo.
