ET MESTERVÆRK I VERDENSLITTERATURENSkrevet for børn og elsket af voksneMåske den klogeste og mest underfundige fortælling om kærlighed og savn. ”Voksne forstår aldrig noget selv, og det er trættende for børn altid og hele tiden at skulle forklare dem alt …”

On one level this work is the story of an airman's discovery of a small boy from another planet in the desert and his stories of intergalactic travel, and on the other hand it is a thought-provoking allegory of the human condition.

In "The Little Prince",a small boy leaves the tiny planet on which he lives alone, on a trip to Earth, where he is introduced to the vagaries of adult behaviour. "Letter to a Hostage" is an open letter to a Jewish intellectual in hiding in occupied France.

In 1926, de Saint-Exupery began flying for the airline Latecoere - later known as Aeropostale - opening up the first mail routes across the Sahara and the Andes. This autobiographical narrative combines encounters with nomadic Arabs and other adventures. It includes the story of his crash in the Libyan Desert in 1936, and his miraculous survival.

Han var blandt flyvningens pionerer i Frankrig og gjorde fra 1926 tjeneste som pilot på de franske luftpostlinjer og var senere chef for en nordafrikansk flyveplads. I 1929 udkom hans første bog, "Postflyveren", der fulgtes af "Flyveren i natten", "Blæsten, sandet og stjernerne" samt "Krigsflyveren", "Breve til et gidsel" og det beåndede poetiske eventyr "Den lille prins". Han deltog aktivt som krigsflyver i Anden Verdenskrig, hvorunder han styrtede ned og blev dræbt i 1944. Efter hans død udkom "Brev til en general" og den store, tankevækkende roman "Citadellet".

Le narrateur est un aviateur qui, à la suite d'une panne de moteur, a dû se poser en catastrophe dans le désert du Sahara et tente seul de réparer son avion. Le lendemain de son atterrissage forcé, il est réveillé par une petite voix qui lui demande : " S'il vous plaît... dessine-moi un mouton ! " Jour après jour, le petit prince raconte son histoire au narrateur. Il vit sur une autre planète, l'astéroïde B612, " à peine plus grande qu'une maison ". Les activités du petit prince consistent essentiellement à ramoner les volcans et à couper les baobabs pour qu'ils n'envahissent pas sa planète. Après ces activités, le petit prince va contempler un coucher de soleil; son astéroïde est si petit qu'il lui suffit de déplacer sa chaise de quelques mètres pour cela : pas besoin d'aller loin pour trouver le bonheur.
