| birth_date = {{circa}} {{birth date|1619|3|6|df=y}}Though often cited as his date of birth, the 6th of March is actually the date of his baptism. At the time, it was usual for a baptism to take place within 3 days of birth and in Paris, with easy access to a priest, it would have been possible that it happened on the same day. However, the actual date remains unknown.

小王子
翻开《小王子》,你便走进了一位法国作家留给世人的温柔寓言——它也是安托万·德·圣埃克苏佩里最广为人知的一部作品。一九四三年,这部小书在纽约问世,与英译本同步面世。乍看像一则写给孩子的小故事,字里行间却藏着诗与哲思。
它已被翻译成四百五十七种语言和方言,是仅次于《圣经》的、世界上译本最多的作品。
圣埃克苏佩里的文笔简洁而克制,因为他想让每个孩子都能读懂;而在叙述者看来,这份朴素反而成了承载人生隐喻最轻盈的容器。书中的每一章,都是小王子与某位"大人"的相遇——那些荒唐而古怪的举止总让他百思不得其解。这些相遇彼此呼应,宛如一首耐人寻味的寓言。
书中的水彩插画也是文本的一部分,与纯净的语言相互映照:洗练与深邃,正是这部作品最动人的气质。
掩卷之际,你仿佛听见作者轻轻的低语——请别忘了找回你心里那个孩子。他写道:"所有的大人都曾经是孩子,只是很少有人记得。"这本书献给的,是莱昂·韦尔——但请…
