Life is Elsewhere. A novel by Milan Kundera.
During turbulent times in the history of the Czech nation, the young Jaromil wants to make his contribution and use his poetic talent in the fight for a better world, but before he knows it, the poet has joined forces with the executioners and begun to dress horror in the decorative garb of poetry. Flashing narrative joy and icy humor characterize this story, but it also grapples with pressing questions about justice and injustice and the role of artists in society. Life is Elsewhere is considered one of the most significant novels to have been published in Europe in recent decades, winning many awards and being translated into fifty languages. (Bókatíðindi 2005).
