The Little Prince for Grownups

The Little Prince for Grownups

This book, already in its fourth edition in Brazil, brings light into some important insights hidden in Saint ExupÃ©ryÂ´s masterpiece . The inspiration to write a work of art arises from the unconscious, full of ideas that the very author may have been unaware of. â€œThe Little Prince for Grown-upsâ€ gets to the roots of some of Antoine Saint-ExupÃ©ryâ€™s Little Prince, using mythology and Jungian psychology concepts to expose some of its buried treasures. As in the book of Saint-ExupÃ©ry, the crash that leads the pilot to land in the Sahara desert becomes the beginning of a self-knowledge journey. ExupÃ©ry himself, or rather, Antoine, is the protagonist of this journey, and his companions are the blonde boy with the scarf around his neck and the Wise Old Man. In addition, there are many stories from the Bible as well as Gnostic texts, and Greek mythology.. Despite being based on Jungian ideas, no psychology knowledge is required to the read the book.
