1943 was the year where Exupéry would write The Little Prince. The book is considered France's best novel, and has become one of the best-selling and most translated books to date.
After World War II had broken out in Europe and France invaded Exupéry planned to flee to South America. Before that, he was re-stationed into the French Air Force, flying a Bloch MB-174 fighter aircraft. In 1942, two years after he fled to New York, he wrote his most famous book, The Little Prince.

To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world....”
