- Finally, I did it. At 34 years old I read this book.
- What does really intrigue me is the author's life, an adventure, started in an aristocratic family and ended tragically with a flight accident. IF it ended like that because his aeroplane just disappeared and it has been never found. He maybe left the planet Earth and head to another planet...?
- It is a little simple (?) story that can be read in 5 minutes with lightness, but it may be also read carefully giving an interpretation to every single sentence.
- The author wrote the novella in New York. Was the original language English or French?...
- The Prince, he's not that nice when he does not reply to questions!..on the contrary he always wants an answer!
