The author narrates the (tumultuous) life of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry: he was passionate about writing but even more so about flying; despite facing various hostile actions and attitudes, he remained deeply concerned yet never abandoned his goals; despite multiple financial difficulties, he still chose to enjoy life. The ending of this book is beautifully written: Antoine de Saint-Exupéry seemed to have foreseen his impending death, and he had grown weary. Moreover, as an older air force pilot, he felt physically exhausted and believed it was time to retire.
