Milan Kundera (/'mɪlan 'kundɛra/ Brno, April 1, 1929-Paris, July 11, 2023) was a Czech novelist, short story writer, playwright, essayist, and poet. Since 1975, he lived with his wife in France, where he acquired citizenship in 1987.

Kundera's most famous work is The Unbearable Lightness of Being. Before the Velvet Revolution of 1989, the communist regime in Czechoslovakia banned his books. He led a low-profile life and rarely spoke to the media. He was thought to be a candidate for the Nobel Prize in Literature and was also nominated for other awards.

He received the Jerusalem Prize in 1985, the Austrian State Prize for European Literature in 1987, and the Herder Prize in 2000. In 2021, he was awarded the Order of Merit by the president of Slovenia.
