Milan Kundera's IGNORANCE

Ignorance by Milan Kundera was my last read. I liked it. Yeah. I did. Its pretty much on the same lines as Ulysses and Ithaca. The plot revolves around these two emigrants who dont really want to recollect the past few years of their lives. Circumstances have brought them to a point where they get face to face with their past but there is not much they want to remember or rather they remember. It can also be titled something related to forgetting. The novel kind of speaks of the same emotions that Kundera must have gone through himself being a Chezh emigrant. I guess its about wanting tp return to the bestest past in your lives when he/she is moiving on in life. And this can be rightly termed as Ignorance. An apt title for sure. Reading it is definitely a pleasure.
