Note: Because France was under the control of Germany when this book was published, and Saint-Exupéry's works were banned by the occupying authorities, the book could not be published in France. Reynal & Hitchcock published both English and French versions in the US. The English version was released about a week before the French, but because the original manuscript was written in French, we view the French version as the "canonical title". List of 353 translations. According to Project Gutenberg Australia, the original French text contains a bit over 14,000 words.
