Antoine de Saint-Exupery's timeless tale, reissued in a beautiful
clothbound edition designed by Coralie Bickford-Smith. Antoine de
Saint-Exupery first published The Little Prince in 1943, only a
year before his plane vanished over the Mediterranean during a
reconnaissance mission. Nearly eighty years later, this fable of
love and loneliness has lost none of its power. The narrator is a
downed pilot in the Sahara Desert, frantically trying to repair his
wrecked plane. His efforts are interrupted one day by the
apparition of a little prince, who asks him to draw a sheep. "In
the face of an overpowering mystery, you don't dare disobey," the
narrator recalls. "Absurd as it seemed, a thousand miles from all
inhabited regions and in danger of death, I took a scrap of paper
and a pen out of my pocket." And so begins their dialogue, which
stretches the narrator's imagination in all sorts of surprising,
childlike directions.
