Description

A young woman falls in love with a successful surgeon who struggles with his infidelity. His mistress is a free-spirited artist who leads a life filled with betrayals. The surgeon’s other lover faces the consequences of his noble qualities in a politically charged environment. As their lives unfold against the backdrop of communist Czechoslovakia, the characters confront the weight of their choices and the fleeting nature of existence. This novel explores themes of love, politics, and the philosophical implications of freedom and responsibility.
