» biogardener - The Little Prince

When I hear the word "asteroid" I think of the book "The Little Prince." I read it in the original French, and it was a spiritual experience for me. I really identified with the little prince, and I have a lot of respect for the author, a pacifist and a test pilot who lost his life when his plane plunged into the sea. It has never been found.

Yet another thing we have in common, Traute.

"The Little Prince" is the single most influential work of literature in my life. I first read it with my mother as a little child. I have lived by that book, and I consider it required reading for all my friends and lovers--anyone who is going to get serious about a relationship with me must read it to understand what has helped to form me in relationships!

I too absolutely adore Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. What a gifted man.
Do you have the little companion book which is "A Guide for Grown-ups: Essential Wisdom from the Collected Works of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry"?

If not I would *love* to send you a copy. We carry it in our store. E-mail me your postal address & it's as good as yours smile

If anyone reading this has not yet read "The Little Prince", please do. You will be treating yourself to something you'll never forget--whether you love the book or hate it--it is absolutely *memorable*!

Let me look around for the book here first.

My article on the book is always the second or third-most hit getter. "The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint Exupéry."
