Thank you for the history lessons, and for this gem of an observation: “The closest visual equivalent of my brain would be a slab of Emmental cheese: More holes, less cheese.” Me too! But it raises questions: Do we serve that with crackers? Is it good in fondue?
I wonder why THAT line caught your eye. It's not like Peter at all!!!!!!! HINT: I really need to see that visually and I can imagine what a treat that will be for me.
Wonderful piece, Kalpana, so interesting about Kundera not trusting translators. I was in Prague over 20 years ago, your post is making me want to return!
Wasn't Prague gorgeous? This trip was over 8 years ago but it felt so fresh when I went back to the pictures. My son was just 21 then and it made me realize how much both of us had aged.

It is pretty vivid already, without a cartoon to back it up!

Yes, absolutely gorgeous city!
