First Edition of Tretí sesit smešných lásek; Inscribed by Milan Kundera to Ambassador Eduard Goldstücker

First Czech edition and true first. Inscribed and dated in 1978 by Milan Kundera on the title page to Eduard Goldstücker. Goldstücker was a Czechoslovak literary historian and diplomat. Tretí sesit smešných lásek was later translated into English as Laughable Loves.

"An intellectual heavyweight and a pure literary virtuoso, Milan Kundera takes some of Freud's most cherished complexes and irreverently whirls them about in acts of legerdemain that capture our darkest, deepest human passionsThe tales in Laughable Loves surprise and illuminateKundera's world is complex, full of mockeries and paradoxes. Life is often brutal and humiliating; it is often blasphemous, funny, irritating" (Abe Ravitz, Cleveland Plain Dealer).
