Farewell Waltz (Vals na Proshchanie)

Milan Kundera is among the most popular contemporary writers. His books captivate readers with the sophistication of their style, the masterful construction of their plots, and the intensity of their characters' emotions. Each new work by the writer adds to the ranks of bestselling intellectual prose.
The novel 'Farewell Waltz' tells the story of love, hate, and the relationships between eight characters who meet in a small resort town in Czechoslovakia in the early 1970s. Each of them finds themselves caught up in a variety of romantic entanglements that intersect, creating an intricate plot that takes on unexpectedly tragic overtones toward the end.
