El Principito (Audiolibro oficial)
Fábula mítica y relato filosófico que interroga acerca de la relación del ser humano con su prójimo y con el mundo, El Principito concentra, con maravillosa simplicidad, la constante reflexión de Saint-Exupéry sobre la amistad, el amor, la responsabilidad y el sentido de la vida. Viví así, solo, sin nadie con quien hablar verdaderamente, hasta que tuve una avería en el desierto del Sahara, hace seis años. Algo se había roto en mi motor. Y como no tenía conmigo ni mecánico ni pasajeros, me dispuse a realizar, solo, una reparación difícil. Era, para mí, cuestión de vida o muerte. Tenía agua apenas para ocho días. La primera noche dormí sobre la arena a mil millas de todatierra habitada. Estaba más aislado que un náufrago sobre una balsa en medio del océano. Imaginaos, pues, mi sorpresa cuando, al romper el día, me despertó una extraña vocecita que decía: -Por favor..., ¡dibújame un cordero! -¿Eh!? -Dibújame un cordero...
Antoine De Saint-Exupéry (Author), Irene Montalà, Iván Priego, Iván Priego Posada, José Posada, Manu Guix (Narrator)

El Petit Príncep (audiollibre oficial)
Faula mítica i una narració filosófica que es pregunta sobre la relació entre l'ésser humà i el seu proïsme i el món que l'envolta, El petit príncep concentra, amb una senzillesa que meravella, la reflexió llarga i constant de Saint-Exupéry sobre l'amistat, l'amor, la responsabilitat i el sentit de la vida. O sigui que he viscut sol, sense ningú amb qui de veritat poder parlar, fins que vaig tenir una avaria al desert del Sahara, fa sis anys. S'havia trencat alguna cosa del motor. I com que no anava amb cap mecànic ni amb cap passatger, em vaig preparar per mirar de fer, tot sol, una reparació difícil. Per mi era una qüestió de vida o mort. Amb prou feines tenia aigua per beure per a vuit dies. La primera nit, doncs, em vaig adormir a la sorra a mil milles de cap terra habitada. Estava molt més aïllat que un nàufrag en un rai al mig de l'oceà. O sigui que imagineu-vos la sorpresa que vaig tenir, a trenc d'alba, quan una veueta molt especial em va despertar. Deia: -Si us plau... dibuixa'm un be! -¿Eh!? -Dibuixa'm un be...
Antoine De Saint-Exupéry (Author), Irene Montalà, Iván Priego, Iván Priego Posada, José Posada, Manu Guix (Narrator)
