Identity - Milan Kundera

Descriere Identity - Milan Kundera

An erotic and disturbing story about love and the psyche. After a brief holiday with her younger lover, Chantal begins to receive letters at her Paris home from a mysterious admirer. Soon, the missives, which she hides from her lover, begin to have an effect on the couple's relationship. \n \nSometimes--perhaps only for an instant--we fail to recognize a companion; for a moment their identity ceases to exist, and thus we come to doubt our own. The effect is at its most acute in a couple, where our existence is given meaning by our perception of a lover, and theirs of us. \n \nWith his astonishing skill at building on and out from the significant moment, Kundera has placed such a situation and the resulting wave of panic at the core of his new novel. In a narrative as intense as it is brief, a moment of confusion sets in motion a complex chain of events which forces the reader to cross and recross the divide between fantasy and reality. \n
