Description
A beautiful book about loneliness, the search for beauty, and the meaning of life. Petr Sís narrates the story of the legendary French aviator, adventurer, and writer Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (1900–1944) with empathy, lightness, and a sense of the period's atmosphere. This exceptionally crafted illustrated biography follows his family background, childhood dreams, work for the airmail service, and the fateful last flight over the Mediterranean Sea. It is a portrait of a man who enjoyed reading and writing right in the cockpit of his plane, boldly pushing the boundaries of what was possible while remaining a great dreamer. Throughout his life, he preserved the curious and playful child within him – his Little Prince.
