This is the story of a love affair and a marriage, written by the wife of the famous aviator Antoine de Saint-Exupery. It is not a perfect marriage by any means, mostly because of Saint-Ex's remoteness, both physically and emotionally, but he always returned to Consuelo expressing undying love. I enjoyed the writing but felt somewhat exasperated by the roller coaster of the relationship. I would like to know how she lived the rest of her life after her husband died.
I started on this reading path because I read that Anne Morrow Lindbergh was very taken with Saint-Ex and may have had an affair with him. She is not mentioned in this book, but he obviously was serially unfaithful in the marriage.
