The Little Prince
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry· 1943
A small story that quietly knows everything about being human.
A pilot crashes in the desert and meets a small boy from another planet. The boy tells him about a rose he loves, a fox he met, and the strange grown-ups he doesn't understand. Simple on the surface, deep underneath.
Mikä se oikeasti on
The Little Prince looks like a children's book and reads like one. But it's secretly about loneliness, love, and what we forget when we grow up. People come back to it their whole lives.
“A small story that quietly knows everything about being human.”
