Synopsis
A dazzling collection of stories - originally banned in 1968 Prague - by a 'magnificent short-story writer' (NYT) and author of classic The Unbearable Lightness of Being.
'Kundera is a self-confessed hedonist in a world beset by politics . . . Marvellous.' Salman Rushdie
'Kundera's achievement has been to bring both private life and political life into one comic framework.' Ian McEwan
On holiday, a man and his girlfriend pretend she is a hitchhiking stranger - but their game soon makes them strangers to each other.
One young man reconnects with his grieving former lover, only to be shocked by her ageing body.
Two friends embark on an obsessive mission to seduce as many women as possible in the Eternal Chase.
A teacher fakes piety to seduce a devoutly religious girl: then jilts her and yearns for God.
In these celebrated stories, Kundera probes our darkest erotic impulses and most destructive sexual fantasies - while seducing us with his graceful, whimsical prose.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Laughable Loves is a collection of stories that first appeared in print in Prague before 1968, but was then banned. The seven stories are all concerned with love, or rather with the complex erotic games and stratagems employed by women and especially men as they try to come to terms with needs and impulses that can start a terrifying train of events. Sexual attraction is shown as a game that often turns sour, an experience that brings with it painful insights and releases uncertainty, panic, vanity and a constant need for reassurance. Thus a young couple on holiday start a game of pretence that threatens to destroy their relationship, two middle-aged men go in search of girls they don't really want, a young man renews contact with an older woman who feels humiliated by her ageing body, an elderly doctor uses his beautiful wife to increase his attraction and minister to his sexual vanity. In Laughable Loves, Milan Kundera shows himself, once again, as a master of fiction's most graceful illusions and surprises. Laughable Loves by Milan Kundera is a collection of seven masterful short stories which were banned upon their appearance in 1968. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780571206926
