T555: Two tribes of tiny human like creatures

I used to read this book in my local library as a child around 1993. It was a fantasy fiction with these great illustrations that were so detailed and full of activity. The image I remember is of these two tribes of tiny human like creatures in a forest setting, one tribe in red the other in blue..

Milan Kundera: The Unbearable Lightness of Being
Thursday, May 24, 7 p.m.
~ fourth Thursdays ~

A young woman is in love with a successful surgeon, a man torn between his love for her and his incorrigible womanizing. His mistress, a free-spirited artist, lives her life as a series of betrayals--while her other lover, earnest, faithful, and good, stands to lose everything because of his noble qualities. In a world where lives are shaped by irrevocable choices and fortuitous events, and everything occurs but once, existence seems to lose its substance, its weight. Hence we feel "the unbearable lightness of being." A major achievement from one of the world's truly great writers, Milan Kundera's magnificent novel of passion and politics, infidelity and ideas, encompasses the extremes of comedy and tragedy, illuminating all aspects of human existence. Hope to see you for the discussion!
