Wind, Sand, and Stars

Every good French major knows the story of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, vanished war hero, pilot, and author of Le Petit Prince. I was excited, then, when I read a piece about a lesser known work of his, Wind, Sand and Stars, winner of the National Book Award, no less.

Unfortunately, although the writing itself flowed beautifully, but the stories were dull and after weeks of slogging through a handful of pages at a time, I gave up the ghost.

One star.
