Jaromil (S10) (1140809) (自體的心理學)(車行哲學)

You see, I don't show you what happens inside Jaromil's head; rather, I show what happens inside my own: I observe my Jaromil for a long while, and I try, step by step, to get to the heart of his attitude, in order to understand it, name it, grasp it. (The Art of the Novel, Milan Kundera, 1986, kindle location 291/1529)

The character Jaromil appears in Milan Kundera's novel Life Is Elsewhere(also known as La vie est ailleurs in French). The novel is a fictional biography of Jaromil, following his life from childhood through his development as a poet and his involvement in politics.
