As the French Say — The Little Prince

Alliance Française de Delhi’s Book club, As the French Say, opens its first edition with one of the world’s most beloved literary classics: The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.

What makes this little book so timeless? Why does The Little Prince continue to speak to readers of all ages, across languages and generations?

In this first edition of our French literature book club in Delhi, we explore the philosophy hidden within the simplicity of Saint-Exupéry’s story. Through a journey among stars and planets, The Little Prince invites us to reflect on love, friendship, loneliness, wonder, growing up, and the importance of seeing the world with curiosity.

Whether you are discovering The Little Prince for the first time or returning to a story you have loved for years, this is an opportunity to look at the book from a new perspective and share your thoughts with fellow book lovers and readers of French literature.

“Well, I must endure the presence of a few caterpillars if I wish to become acquainted with the butterflies.”

Come read between the stars with us, revisit a familiar story, and discover the questions it leaves behind.
