Antoine de Saint-Exupery-The Citadel. Gift book bound in leather

"The Citadel" is the greatest creation of Antoine de Saint-Exupery, the pinnacle of his artistic philosophy. This powerful, indestructible literary fortress was built by the writer for many years with maximum dedication and endless love.

Since "The Citadel" was not completed (Saint-Exupery always repeated that he would never finish it), and the book itself was too voluminous and difficult to read, the French writer Michel Quesnel, at the request of the family of heirs, made an attempt to edit it, making some cuts and removing repetitions, thereby highlighting all the artistic merits more clearly. The new version turned out to be more accessible and popular, helped to bring readers closer to this inimitable masterpiece of the great writer-architect, who builds his own citadel in the heart of everyone.
