Every novelist's work contains an implicit vision of the history of the novel, an idea of what the novel is. I have tried to express here the idea of the novel that is inherent in my own novels.
-- Milan Kundera Kundera brilliantly examines the work of such important and diverse figures as Rabelais, Cervantes, Sterne, Diderot, Flaubert, Tolstoy, and Musil. He is especially penetrating on Hermann Broch, and his exploration of the world of Kafka's novels vividly reveals the comic terror of Kafka's bureaucratized universe. Kundera's discussion of his own work includes his views on the role of historical events in fiction, the meaning of action, and the creation of character in the post-psychological novel.
##It’s like watching a genius flexing his talent. The genius bit is so enticing, the flexing (the assertive and deliberately provocative) bit not so much but still quite bearable due to his genius. 最有趣的是,一年前读昆德拉的时候就觉得他不会喜欢Orwell,即使他们都把苏联当作死敌;这一点上得到确证让我好快活。
评分##3.5 正统、严肃、博学、自信,昆德拉自封为三百年les temps modernes的继承者。喜欢他写的故事,喜欢他的理论,但不太喜欢他,a huge halo deceptively unaware of itself。也许是因为,作为一个小人物,与一个历史传承者生活在同一个时代而感到别扭吧,没法打心底认同这种legitimacy。

评分##整体体验是对昆叔乎一下子爱乎一下子恨,一摞一摞的自高自大的自言自语当中会突然出现一些让人措不及防的金句。感觉昆叔应该是个酷(和自恋/自虐)到没朋友的人……
评分##2.29-3.9 | gotta actually read the classics if i want to understand all these literary criticism books
评分昆德拉的文论居然写得这么好,以及、可以看得出来他对卡夫卡学者的意见真是蛮大的…
评分##What the novel alone can discover: man's being.
评分##Concentrated. Lucid. If I'd read the book in my undergraduate study, I might have been a literature graduate. As great as Noam Chomsky's Syntactic Structure and George Lakoff's Metaphors We live By.
评分##这是我读得最痛苦的英文书......
