Czech-born writer Milan Kundera died in Paris at the age of 94, the Milan Kundera Library said on Wednesday.
"Unfortunately I can confirm that Mr. Milan Kundera passed away yesterday (Tuesday) after a prolonged illness," Anna Mrazova, spokeswoman for the library in his native city of Brno said.
Kundera was born in the southeastern Czech city of Brno. After emigrating to France in 1975, he became one of the major authors of the publishing house Gallimard in Paris and has been writing his books in French since the 1980s.
His novel The Unbearable Lightness of Being and the collection of short stories called Laughable Loves are among the late author's most famous works.
