It is very easy to be intimidated by the subject of Philosophy. The world of academia is already a very exclusionary club, and Philosophy as a subject tends to attract the elitist of the elite. That being said, if someone wants to explore this fascinating subject on their own, either as a career or just as a passing interest, there are plenty of generous authors waiting with welcome arms to ease them into the process. The Unbearable Lightness of Being is a novel by Milan Kundera. The premise is about two women, two men, and a dog, living together in the Spring of 1968 in Prague. The book touches on the theme of whether our lives are heavy or light when examining life at its root core. The book borrows from Nietzsche, another philosopher, to exclaim that that all events in the world will either repeat themselves forever in the same sequence through an eternal series of cycles or not. This idea of eternal recurrence, or lack of it, might seem to some people as a huge relief or an incredible burden.Â
