The Little Prince.

One of the finest French novellas ever written, The Little Prince is the story of a pilot who finds himself stranded in a desert and comes to meet a young boy who claims to be a prince of an asteroid. The stories shared between these central characters becomes the crux of the wonderful tale.

The pilot spends eight days in the desert fixing his plane but also grows to deeply understand the little prince who tells him of his time at his home asteroid and his visits to other nuggets in the solar system and the people he encountered there. The journey spans across several fantastic places, each acting as a mirrored reflection of humanity and our many egos.

The Little Prince was written during an extremely turbulent time in the author’s life who has fled his fallen country of France to come to North America. The reflections of these worldly events are clearly seen in this work. Even though it is considered a children’s novella, the themes, characters, and settings in the work are profound, with the author making use of fantasy to showcase human behaviour and the nature of people while also trying to highlight how misunderstood children felt during this era. The book was published by Srishti Publishers and is available in paperback.
