  • The Little Prince

  • It is a wonderfully mysterious book. On the surface it describes the journey of the little prince from Asteroid B-612 and his friendship with the narrator of the book. But deep down it is also a fable of life, love, loneliness, learning – and much more.

    It is a wonderfully mysterious book. On the surface it describes the journey of the little prince from Asteroid B-612 and his friendship with the narrator of the book. But deep down it is also a fable of life, love, loneliness, learning – and much more.

    If you haven’t read it, go and read it now. If you have read it already, read it again some years later. Then read it again some years after that. Repeat the process as often as you like. You will realize that it has become a different story each time you read it, and you will see new meaning all the time. This is the magic of The Little Prince.

  • In quel momento apparve la volpe

  • Un libro da avere sempre sul proprio scaffale, da riprendere con scadenze regolari in periodi diversi della propria vita, da cui non si finisce mai di imparare.

    E' il primo libro che farei leggere ad un bambino e ad un adulto.

  • 聖修伯里認識兩個美國出版家尤金．雷納爾和柯蒂斯．希區柯克。一九 四三年法國被希特拉攻佔後，出版家朋友便幫助他到美國避難。那時他 已構思《小王子》的故事，到了美國後，就將之寫了出來，並由出版家 朋友介紹，交由哈考特公司（Harcourt, Brace & Company）出版。所以《小王子》初版是在美國，而非法國。哈 考特公司又找了Katherine Woods來英譯。她沒多久就搞了出來，英譯本幾乎是跟法文本同時 出版的。因為在戰時，時間緊逼，Katherine對譯文沒有多少 斟酌，譯得頗有粗糙，好些句子還不大通順，一直為《小王子》迷所詬 病。只因那是最古老的譯本，《小王子》迷有情意結，它仍歷久 ...

    聖修伯里認識兩個美國出版家尤金．雷納爾和柯蒂斯．希區柯克。一 九四三年法國被希特拉攻佔後，出版家朋友便幫助他到美國避難。那 時他已構思《小王子》的故事，到了美國後，就將之寫了出來，並由 出版家朋友介紹，交由哈考特公司（Harcourt, Brace & Company）出版。所以《小王子》初版是在美國，而非法國。 哈考特公司又找了Katherine Woods來英譯。她沒多久就搞了出來，英譯本幾乎是跟法文本同 時出版的。因為在戰時，時間緊逼，Katherine對譯文沒有 多少斟酌，譯得頗有粗糙，好些句子還不大通順，一直為《小王子》 迷所詬病。只因那是最古老的譯本，《小王子》迷有情意結，它仍歷 久不衰。

    我的HB版是在旺角林買的，已是一九八二年的新版。另外還有一本 企鵝的英文版，是T.V.F Cuffe一九九五年的新譯，還未讀過，不知譯筆如何。我讀過好 些《小王子》中譯，也不是每本都譯得好的。有一回我向朋友極力推 薦《小王子》，卻不慎給了她個劣譯。她將書交還後，說，也不過爾 爾吧。我大感奇怪，才將那書翻閱一下，果然譯得非常悶丙，平白將 一本絕代經典糟蹋了。

    這個Cuffe譯本，是那年遊南非回程在機場書店看到的，售價£ 5.99，折合南非幣$72（Ren），剛巧將我剩餘的Ren花 掉，一舉兩得。
