Antoine de Saint-Exupery (Author)
Writer and aviator Antoine de Saint-Exupery (1900-1944), was born
into an aristocratic French family at the turn of the century.
Saint-Exupery was preoccupied with aviation from a young age; a
passion which would lead him into the French Air Force. His first
two books, Southern Mail and Night Flight, are distinguished by a
poetic evocation of the romance and discipline of flying. Later
works, including Wind, Sand and Stars and Flight to Arras, stress
his humanistic philosophy. Saint-Exupery's popular children's book
The Little Prince is also read by adults for its allegorical
meaning. In 1944, Saint-Exupery's plane disappeared during a
mission in World War II.
This simple, beautiful fable has captured the imaginations of both
adults and children ever since it was first published in the 1940s.
Now considered a contemporary classic, it is a book to share and to
treasure.
