Representaion During Books Night Flight

Night Flight is the novel that made famous Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. He realizes in this novel a real tribute to the pilots of Aéropostale. I had a hard time hanging in the beginning, it took me a long time before going back into history completely and understand all the subtlety. The pilots showed a lot of courage and motivation during the night postage period in the 1930s. The author does not simply recount the lives of drivers in their cockpits, it goes further by focusing on the lives of the "close" drivers to show us by example the despair of a woman who no longer see his husband. I found this tribute highly remarkable and fair, the writing is poetic and haunting. Rivière is a man who seems tough but he is in fact a sensitive heart who cares about his employees. Some descriptions were a little too detailed but the story does not become boring. The aviation adventure is magical, amazing and simply unforgettable.

Kind of depressing, but profound and real.



Review on translation by Stuart Gilbert. Looking for a particular translation of the Little Prince, I found myself in the library "Stacks" section of old, rarely checked out books. There, two other books by Saint-Exupery (do surnames like that still exist?) attracted me through their first lines. I was entranced. What exquisite writing! And like the index of poetry, each chapter of Night Flight is headed on a lead-in page by its first line. The book begins, with Fabian, the pilot silently

Well, I tried to read it, but could not finish it. The topic was not my cup of tea. Or rather the mood was not appropriate. I will try to read it again sometime in the future.

Interesting little book with some gorgeous paragraphs and thought. It is much better in the air than on the ground - the prevailing theme when not in flight is a question of what it is to be a leader, of permanent works vs. temporary compassion. That's all fine and good but it doesn't spark. What does, I think, is A.d.S.-E.'s description of nuances of flight:"A single radio post still heard him. The only link between him and the world was a wave of music, a minor modulation. Not a lament, no

Looking for a quick resurrection of an old thrill to jumpstart some recent doldrums I pulled this thin paperback off my shelf, read it in a few hours, and found my doldrums dissipated for all the wrong reasons. The very disparity between my old thrill and my new disparagement was enough to lift my spirits backhandedly; via a via negativa as it were, a route of moulds and dogs' ears and foxing. Old thrills... it rarely pays to chase 'em, and freshly heightened spirits attained by traipsing

I dont know what it was about this book that I enjoyed so much! It was very very relaxing and simply beautiful. Perfect literature for a nice warm summer evening to calm down!It's really short so everybody should at least give it a try!
