description + details
the little prince is a modern fable, and for readers far and wide both the title and the work have exerted a pull far in excess of the book’s brevity. written and published first by antoine de st-exupéry in 1943, only a year before his plane disappeared on a reconnaissance flight, it is one of the world’s most widely translated books, enjoyed by adults and children alike. in the meeting of the narrator who has ditched his plane in the sahara desert, and the little prince, who has dropped there through time and space from his tiny asteroid, comes an intersection of two worlds, the one governed by the laws of nature, and the other determined only by the limits of imagination. the world of the imagination wins hands down, with the concerns of the adult world often shown to be lamentably silly as seen through the eyes of the little prince. while adult readers can find deep meanings in his various encounters, they can also be charmed back to childhood by this wise but innocent infant.
this collectors edition book is designed to look + feel vintage with imperfect edges.
