When the heart speaks, the mind finds it indecent to object. -- Milan Kundera, The Unbearable Lightness of Being Milan Kundera (Czech: [ˈmɪlan ˈkundɛra]; born 1 April 1929) is the Czech Republics most recognized living writer. Of Czech origin, he has lived in exile in France since 1975, having become a naturalized citizen in 1981. He sees himself as a French writer and insists his work should be studied as French literature and classified as such in book stores. Kunderas best-known work is The Unbearable Lightness of Being. His books were banned by the Communist regimes of Czechoslovakia until the downfall of the regime in the Velvet Revolution of 1989. He lives virtually incognito and rarely speaks to the media. A perennial contender for the Nobel Prize in Literature, he has been nominated on several occasions.
