Title: Living parallel
First published: 2001
Description: "Alexandr Kliment's Living Parallel is a novel about a man caught in an unusual love triangle. Mikulas loves Olga, an artist he fell in love with twenty years ago, when she was married, and who, now a widow, is in love with him as well. And he loves the Czech countryside, where in his heart he has sought refuge from the shame of his accommodation to the communist system. Olga is moving to Paris, and Mikulas must choose between his two loves.".

"Until now, Mikulas, an architect permitted to design only high-rise developments, has been able to lead a parallel life, turning his anger into indifference and seeking satisfaction in nature, aesthetic experiences, unrequited love, and ideals about architecture. He has lived in what he considers an oasis of the soul. But to get to this oasis, he has capitulated so often and so deeply, it is nearly impossible for him to make such an important decision."--BOOK JACKET.
