Finally, one of the most of the most beloved books every published—explained. The Little Prince is revered around the world. Two hundred million copies have been sold in 270 languages; it is the fourth best-selling book of all time. Part of its allure is that is seems incredibly wise but so simple it is read as a work for children. Yet its meaning is elusive, and its place amid the writings of an adventurer and war hero acclaimed for dramatic bestsellers like Night Flight and Flight to Arras is mysterious.In this elegant, carefully argued book, Pierre Lassus reexamines the story of The Little Prince against the facts of Saint-Exupéry's own extraordinary life, from his cherished but fatherless childhood in aristocratic poverty to his career as a pioneering pilot. His plane had broken down in the desert before. He had adopted a fox, when posted at the Spanish fort of Cape Juby, in southern Morocco. He had known the world of business before becoming pilot; he had also known unrequited love. Like his little protagonist's, his body was never found after his plane disappeared in World War II. He was working on his spiritual autobiography when he died, and there too, Lassus finds resonances and keys to the understated spirituality of his last great book.

El Principito de Saint-Exupery se ha convertido, para una gran multitud de hombres y mujeres de nuestro siglo, en la narracion clave de su vida. El Principito les ofrecio refugio en horas de soledad, desengano y desamparo; fue tambien el acompanante imprescindible en sus busquedas y anhelos interminables.El Principito volvera a esta tierra, cuando ayudemos a superar las contradicciones que le echaron a perder. El Principito tiene que vivir en esta tierra. este es el objetivo central del presente ensayo psicoanalitico y teologico que desea seguir sonando en los simbolos densos de la famosa narracion de Saint-Exupery con vistas a la propia vida.Investigar este librito y su mundo psiquico significa preguntar hasta que punto puede haber una esperanza digna de credito para nuestro inhumano siglo. Tenemos conciencia de vivir en medio de un desierto que se extiende sin cesar. La pregunta es si habra alguna fuente y donde estara. Tendremos que ir, con Saint-Exupery, por el camino de las estrellas y de las cisternas y ver cuanta luz encontramos en la noche, y cuanta agua en el desierto.
