«La lentitud» is a novel by Milan Kundera published by Tusquets Editores in paperback (176 pages, in Spanish).
The action alternates between a gallant tale from the 18th century and a present-day visit to a French castle converted into a hotel, where characters from both eras meet during an entomologists' congress. The haste of a motorcyclist and the calm of a traveller in a carriage embody the tension between the speed of the present and the memory of the past.
This edition is from 2005 and is part of the Esenciales collection by Tusquets, in which it is number 5.
For readers of contemporary fiction and literary fiction interested in the work of Milan Kundera.
