Maggiori informazioni sul libro

In the spring of 1944, Antoine de Saint-Exupery left his wife, Consuelo, to return to the war in Europe. Soon after, he disappeared while flying a reconnaissance mission over occupied France. Neither his plane nor his body was ever found. This is Consuelo's account of their extraordinary marriage, a love story about a pilot and his wife, a man who yearned for the stars and the spirited wife who gave him the strength to fulfil his dreams. Their love affair and marriage took them through periods of betrayal and infidelity, pain and intense passion, devastating abandonment and tender poetic love. Several times in the course of their marriage they would go their separate ways, but always they would return.
