FROM THE PUBLISHER - All too often, this brilliant novel of thwarted love and revenge miscarried has been read for its political implications. Now, a quarter century after THE JOKE was first published and several years after the collapse of the Soviet-imposed Czechoslovak regime, it becomes easier to put such implications into perspective in favor of valuing the book (and all Kundera s work) as what it truly is: great, stirring literature that sheds new light on the eternal themes of human existence. inventory #16740 ISBN: 0060190302.
