Episode #234 ... The Unbearable Lightness of Being - Milan Kundera

from Philosophize This! · host Stephen West

Today we try to produce a philosophical guide for the book The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera. We talk about Parmenides, Nietzsche's eternal recurrence, kitsch as something more than just an aesthetic category, existential codes and his animal test of morality.
