A short discussion on Milan Kundera's "The Unbearable Lightness of Being." A longer discussion on what is considered lightness and heaviness, what constitutes weakness and strength. Most important of all, a discussion of the heart - broken ones and wretched, yes, but a beating heart nonetheless - and how the light gets in.  ******************************** Send all your stories to be featured: [email protected] Follow me on Instagram: @bipolar_psyche See what books I am up to: https://www.facebook.com/thebipolarpsyche/Subscribe to the channel, Radio of Resistance, for the latest updates on the literary discussion podcasts.  *********************************  Author's Bio: Thanh Dinh graduated from the University of Toronto with distinction. Although she specialized in business management, her passion for writing and literature can burn down a whole forest. She had joined the Creative Writing Workshop at the University of Toronto and achieved a full grade and recognition from her mentor and professor, Richard Greene. As a literary enthusiast, her reading list spans across the globe - from North America's famous writers like Hemingway and Faulkner to the lesser-known Asian authors like Kenzaburo Oe and Yukio Mishima. Heavily influenced by the poets' tireless search for a cure to solitude, she resorts to solving that question using words and tiny stories to show the beauty of the living world and the scars of life's surviving veterans.  #literary #bookreview #milankundera #mentalhealth #iterarydiscussion #booksummary
