Milan Kundera, the author of "The Unbearable Lightness of Being," has demanded that a Czech weekly apologize for publishing allegations that he once informed on a purported Western spy, his representative said Wednesday.
The Respekt weekly was given two weeks to apologize in a letter delivered to the publisher October 16, said Jiri Srstka, the director of the Dilia agency, which represents Kundera in the Czech Republic.
"We haven't heard from them yet," Srstka said.
He said if Respekt does not comply, Kundera will sue. He declined to give details.
No representative of Respekt was immediately available for comment. Editor-in-chief Martin Simecka was quoted by the CTK news agency as saying the request is being studied by lawyers and Respekt will comment later.
