About
In this study of The Little Prince the author examines the relevance of Antoine de Saint-Exupery's experience in World War II as a fighter-pilot. It points out that this man, inspired by adventures that few people will know in their lifetimes, could at the same time be everyman, communicating universal truths. In examining the relationship between the pilot and the little prince, Higgins reveals how this little fairy tale teaches us lessons about pain and love and asks us to turn inward to find answers to questions of responsibility.
