"Öne runs the risk of weeping a little, if one lets himself be tamed..."
Never ever did a mere 100 paged book moved me so much like the way this book did. The little Prince makes several profound and idealistic observations about life and human nature. This book describes the perception of a small kid about the way adults take things in life. Short discoveries like the king who can control the stars but only by ordering them to do what they would do anyway. Businessman who is stuck in an vicious circle of counting stars he thinks he owns to own more stars , the geographer who spends all of his time making maps, but never leaves his desk reflects the dichotomy humans/or so called adults strive to feel while differentiating between the so called consequential and inconsequential matters of life they pursue. Suddenly while reading you will bump into phrases which can exemplify the “Less is more” theory and you will wonder why till date you never realised you were just feeding yourself with garrulous banter, instead you should be just focussing on things that matters. Lovely read, don’t go by the cover and think its a book for kids ‘coz as it is said “What a strange illusion it is to suppose that beauty is goodness “
