Slackhurst Broadcasting 376 Posted July 12, 2023 I wouldn't mind escaping Britain for France myself, but Milan Kundera's best-known books were those he wrote in Czech and which dealt with events there. It's natural he should be thought of as a Czech writer. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Youth in Asia 1,088 Posted July 12, 2023 3 hours ago, La Tombe said: Milan Kundera was French of nationality, spoke French and wrote French. Like Picasso was a French painter. So many artists came and continue to come to France but these artist are described by their origin of nationality and not as French artist while it’s France gave them their popularity and not their original country. It’s the same for writers, painters, actors, singer for many countries. I don’t understand why resume people by their original nationality while the country they immmigrate in gave them everything and more than their original countries ! Should we call Gerard Depardieu Russian? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
