If you like Milan Kundera...,
By A Customer
This review is from: The swell season: A text on the most important things in life (International fiction list) (Paperback)
If you like Milan Kundera check out this author. He speaks of human folly with humor honesty and tenderness. He addresses major human issues with incredible specificity and with a little more sensitivity than Kundera. Enjoy.

The book of loving,
By Merry Jester (Weston, FL) (Weston, FL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Swell Season: A Text on the Most Important Things in Life (Paperback)
The Swell Season is one of the loveliest books I have ever read. It is the story of a young man searching for intimacy with the lovely young female friends of his small hometown during the Nazi occupation of Chekovslovakia. The young girls listen to his lovely musical overtures, but they never give in. Danny loves them, is fascinated by them, and he never fails to tell them this. But he never seems to be able to convince them to yield to him. But they all want to be loved by him. They revel in his love letters. They are jealous when he seems to favor others. He is there perfect lover...pure...and never to be had.
