There is something that all bonus

Buenos Aires, an evening in the 1920 Just hours. For River, they seem an eternity. He feverishly follows the progress of three postal planes from Patagonia, Chile and Paraguay. In the Argentine capital, the mail must then leave at midnight to the old continent. It is he, the network manager, which called for the establishment of night flights. If a plane crashes, it will fall on him. And that the young Fabien precisely through a disturbing storm. Head tortured speaks weight of its responsibilities, River ponders the merits of the risk he poses to his team of pilots. Who is he to put their lives in danger, for the sole purpose of delivering the mail faster?

We tend to forget, but Antoine de Saint-Exupéry did not write that the little prince. This is Flight harmed, published thirteen years earlier, in 1931, who made his literary reputation. An amazing book. A concentrate of emotions.

Supersonic Poetry

The reader is embedded on a journey where all the senses are involved. We follow the setbacks of Fabien, the pilot in trouble over Patagonia. The man is one with his machine to face the vagaries of nature. And thanks to the talent and seasoned pilot experience of the author, as it is one with the driver.

The numbness of the hands on the controls, engine vibration pushed by the storm, the whirlwind of needles ... Saint-Exupéry describes every sensation, every feeling, with such precision and poetry which clings to book as if we ourselves took the wheel.

Meanwhile, on the ground, we accompany the introspective journey of River. The doubts of a leader feared and respected but often misunderstood. The wandering of thought at the sight of the stars. Her journey to answer this question: Does the mission premium on the lives of his men?

Night Flight reads a line, listening to a Beethoven symphony. For all lovers of escape and poetry.
