内容简介
A young woman in love with a man torn between his love for her and his incorrigible womanizing; one of his mistresses and her humbly faithful lover-these are the two couples whose story is told in this masterful novel. Kundera's first since The Book of Laughter and Forgetting. 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. Hence, we feel the unbearable lightness of being not only as the consequence of our private actions, but also in the public sphere, and the two inevitably intertwine.
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。

一直以为英语是原版语言,看了书的出版信息才知道英语也是别人翻译的。好多年前就有人向我介绍这本书好看,但是一直没那个觉悟,沉不下心看书,现在人能静下来看书了,刚好又有人聊起它,马上买来看。发现英语不是第一语言有点小小的失望,毕竟翻译总不能完全达意。
