This International Bestseller is about a young woman in love with a man torn between his love for her and his incorrigible womanizing; one of his mistresses and her humble faithful lover – these are the two couples whose story is told in this masterful novel. In a world in which lives are shaped by irrevocable choices and by fortuitous events, a world in which everything occurs but once, existence seems to lose its substance, its weight.

Her mother was beautiful and a lot of men courted her. All throughout the story, Tereza struggles to win Tomas’ heart completely without having to share it with anyone else. Franz would always close his eyes whenever he penetrated Sabina. With her, Tomas could fulfill his fantasies. They say that it is possible for one to hear what you are saying without really listening to a word you’re saying.

She eventually regretted this because the man turned out to by a lazy sloth.
