    So far I've read Ignorance, The Unbearable Lightness of Being, The Joke, and working through The Book of Laughter and Forgetting. So far I think Ignorance is my favorite so far and Laughter and Forgetting might be my second pick, I really enjoy how easily he's able to weave him implications outside of the characters immediate situations, IE the music that helped them navigate through past hardships, writers that gave them the necessary labels to help make things make some sort of sense for them, and historical figures and the obscure elements of their lives to give some parallel to what they're going through. Though I'm not sure if I'll be wanting to read more of his works because, IMO, through the books I've read so far all the characters in them seem to be recycled and put into different scenarios or given the chance to talk about other things than they did before, not a critique or anything, I actually enjoy finding new things with these characters, but if I read any more I might get tired of it. I want to read Immortality next.

    If anyone else has read his works, I'd love to know what you think.
