    Book Recommendations

    I really enjoyed "The Unbearable Lightness of Being," by Milan Kundera. Would someone please suggest several other books I might enjoy?

    I'm glad you enjoyed it. That's a great book!

    I read Philip Roth's "The Human Stain" in a class where we read Kundera and saw a lot of philosophic similarities but Roth gets a little too sexually explicit for my tastes.

    I don't know why exactly but I also have a feeling you will like Don Delilio's "White Noise".

    The safest bet I guess is to read more Kundera. "The Book of Laughter and Forgetting" is also brilliant.
