The Little Prince by Antoine de St. Ex is an epic novel with timeless relevance. Featuring an alarming insight into how troubled individuals handle matters of loss. This book, originally published in 1964, garnered numerous applauds from different countries. . St. Ex proposes a compelling scenario for the audience to ponder over as he draws parallels between the protagonist’s relationship and his surroundings. Children aged 8 and up thoroughly appreciate the minimalist verbiage and repertories of emotions portrayed across the narrative. The central conceit of Saint-Ex’s tale, gleaned from several literary and philosophical classics, is ‘There are more than two truths’. However, the principal appeal of this classic reads wholly between its simple and all-encompassing message. *‘If you want to keep a friendship, stop arguing'* is a terse aspect of the tale that conveys genuine meaning albeit abruptly.

Описание книги от Антуан де Сент-Экзюпери
The Little Prince (French: Le Petit Prince) – is an allegorical fable and the most famous work of Antoine de Saint-Exupery.
It was first published in April 1943 by publisher “Reynal & Hitchcock” in both English and French. Saint-Exupery wrote the novella while living in New York City; a city he fled to after the occupation of his native France by Nazi Germany.
The literary roots of the fable are based on the wandering plot of the rejected prince; while the emotional – on a child’s view of the world.
The story line is built around the travels of the Little Prince who hails from the tiny planet B-612. Gradually, his journey becomes not just the literal movement from planet to planet, but more of a way to discover life and the world.
Thanks to Saint-Exupery’s artistic methods, adult readers see in the fable, a transcript of a conversation of two old friends; while children get a vivid and easily understandable description of the world that surrounds them. Due mostly to these two factors, The Little Prince has achieved such high levels of recognition and popularity.
