Saint-Exupery was one of the most remarkable figures in 20th-century history--a pioneer aviator, a swashbuckling international hero, and author of many international bestsellers, including the enduring classic The Little Prince. --The New Yorker.
It is balanced, perceptive, thoroughly researched, and exceptionally well-written.
A remarkable biography; indeed, it is impossible to imagine the job better done.
In this definitive biography, Pulitzer Prize winner Stacy Schiff reveals an intrepid and unconventional life that rivals the best adventure stories.
His careers as a novelist and an aviator were born here, and his life once he returned to Europe was defined--with brilliant and catastrophic results--by the sense of isolated fascination and curiosity he developed in the desert.
An impoverished aristocrat from one of France\'s oldest families, Saint-Exupéry moved at age twenty-seven to the western Sahara Desert, to live alone in a plank shack and manage the way station for the Aéropostale, the French mail service.
But the solitary hours he spent above the earth in open cockpit airplanes gave birth to a more famous legacy, a series of enchanting, autobiographical novels and the classic story The Little Prince , still the most translated book in the French language.
At the time he was best known for a career of daring flights over the Sahara, the Pyrenees, and Patagonia and for his contributions to the science of aviation.
From a master biographer, the life story of the daring French aviator who became one of the twentieth century\'s most beloved authors Antoine de Saint-Exupéry disappeared at age forty-four during a reconnaissance flight over southern France.
