Features: This book consists of letters written by Saint-Exupéry's beautiful wife, Consolée, to him during his time serving in North Africa. The letters are filled with longing, anticipation, and beautiful memories, brimming with deep affection. However, their love was not a sweet happiness but rather one filled with pain. Saint-Exupéry's infidelity, inconsistency, uncertain separations, aviation accidents, and eventual disappearance plunged Consolée into endless waiting. As Saint-Exupéry wrote in The Little Prince, "I was too young to know how to love."
