Man, I just started The Book of Laughter and Forgetting and I'm already loving it. I've had to stop from highlighting like 75% of it.

I read Unbearable Lightness & Slowness about 12 years ago, and really liked those, but don't remember either too well except in Lightness was really sad and Slowness had some buttplay in it. Will probably reread Unbearable Lightness soon, but I'd say start at the Book of Laughter and Forgetting since it was his first big break anyway

I'd start with his first book, The Joke. Representative of what he does, and less inaccessible than some of his later work. Skip his French books unless you really love him.

Unbearable Lightness of Being and Laughable Loves as your first two in any order. Then Laughter and Forgetting.

I'll second Laughable Loves. It's stories which is always good as an introduction to a writer.

Begin and end with his first and best book, The Joke.
