I think tereza has some kind of schizophrenia or extreme anxiety. Like many of the other characters, she has a constant fear of the secret police which seems to be kind of exaggerated at times. in general everyone seems a bit out of it.

I love this book so much. I feel like it makes me do deeper thinking kinda idk
it's really good. 10/10 would recommend
franz and sabrina chapters are my favorite I think
"when graves are covered with stones, the dead can no longer get out... if a grave is covered with a stone it means we don't want the deceased to come back." pg 123-124

new character franz. he's weird. idk if I like him. this part goes more in depth into the artist sabina. I love her. so much. this writing style makes my brain feel nice. its kind of how I think but with fancier words. so many thoughts so little space to write. I love the book so very much and can't wait to read more by this kundera guy.

(I swear I am actually on page 69) this book made me enjoy reading again. the story telling style kind of reminds me of "in watermelon sugar" in the way that it's not really a story line that flows or keeps one perspective. it often jumps between the narrator and the two main characters. it has a sense of both a story and the deeper meanings found within the story. it's analyzing itself in a way. I quite like it.

this guy is a jack ass (pardon my language). I like tereza she's cool I feel bad for her.
