minimalism
Kundera tells a fascinating story that genuinely impressed me: he relates how his father’s lexical range was diminished with age and, at the end of his life, was reduced to two words: “It’s strange! It’s strange!” Of course, he hadn’t reached that point because he had nothing much to say anymore but because those two words effectively summed up his life’s experience. They were the very essence of it. Perhaps that’s the story behind minimalism too…
