Kundera brilliantly examines the work of such important and diverse characters as Rabelais, Cervantes, Sterne, Diderot, Flaubert, Tolstoy, and Musil. He is especially penetrating on Hermann Broch, and his exploration of the world of Kafka's novels vividly unveils the comic terror of Kafka's bureaucratized universe. Kundera's discussion of his own work includes his views on the role of historical happenings in fiction, the meaning of action, and the creation of identity in the postpsychological book.
