Book Reviews of A Guide for Grown-ups: Essential Wisdom from the Collected Works of Antoine de Saint-Exupry
Book Review: "It is always in the midst, in the epicenter..."
Summary: 5 Stars
"of your troubles that you find serenity."-from Wartime Writings 1939-1944
This small, 83 page book, Guide for Grown-ups, contains selected quotes from the several books and poems that Antoine de Saint-Exupery wrote during his lifetime. The title for this review contains the only words found on page 72. I picked up this book the other day and this quote really spoke to me at this time in my life. I bought several of these with the intention of giving them out as gifts. I still have one left; the quotes are great ones to meditate on. Antoine de Saint-Exupery, writer of The Little Prince, was an aviator who served in the French Air Corps during WWII; he presumably died in 1944 during a mission flying over the Mediterranean. I haven't read any of his books, however, I do love this little one.
