New Releases by Antoine de Saint

Letter to a Hostage is a book by the author Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. Saint-Exupéry initially wrote this piece as a preface for his best friend, Léon Werth’s novel: Trente-trois jours (Thirty Three Days). Werth had been forced to take refuge in the Jura region of France during the autumn of 1940 because of his Jewish origins. His book, however, could not be published, and so the author significantly revised his preface, removing any direct references to his friend and making him anonymous within the text and a symbol for France as the hostage of the occupying forces. This version was published independently in June 1943. The work is comprised of six short chapters which reflect upon recent aspects of the author’s life (travelling to Portugal, impressions of the Sahara, living in the USA...), and combines references to his friendship with Werth and to his love for his country.

Tout écrivain, tout grand homme a entretenu des relations épistolaires avec sa famille. Mais Saint-Exupéry était lié à la sienne par une affection et une tendresse de chaque instant. La maison et le parc de l''enfance, des êtres chers trop tôt disparus, une mère hors du commun, ouverte à toutes les formes de l''art et de l''esprit, ayant surmonté tout au long de sa vie tant de chagrin et de difficultés, tout a contribué à rapprocher Antoine de Saint-Exupéry de celle à qui il écrivait en 1930 : " Dites-vous bien que de toutes les tendresses la vôtre est la plus précieuse et que l''on revient dans vos bras aux minutes lourdes. Et que l''on a besoin de vous, comme un petit enfant, souvent. Et que vous êtes un grand réservoir de paix et que votre image rassure... ".

In his first novel, Saint-Exupeacute;ry pays homage to "those elemental divinities-night, day, mountain, sea, and storm," turning an account of a routine mail flight from France to North Africa into an epic rendering of the pioneer days of commercial aviation. The book is also a poignant reminiscence of a tragic affair, in which the uncertainties of love and flight enhance the mystery of one another. Translated by Curtis Cate.
