I’ve read both the joke and unbearable lightness in my 20s and 30s and perceived them in subtly different ways each time. Definitely reflective of my life experience at each point. I plan to reread each on my 40s, as well, but haven’t gotten to it yet. Life I only read once many years ago, so I’m having trouble remembering the details beyond that I was also wowed by it.
