Saint-Exupéry disappeared on a solo flight in July 1944 while photographing southern France in preparation for an Allied landing there.
Just one year before, the 44-year-old veteran pilot had published The Little Prince, which went on to become one of the best-loved books of all time.

I barely remember it myself... time to make a trip to the library.
Le Petit Prince--c'est un de mes livres favorit. (It's one of my favorite books.) I read it in French once. The translation doesn't do it justice, if you ask me.
