Description

"I did not know how I could reach him, where I could overtake him and go on hand in hand with him once more.

"It is such a secret place, the land of tears."
The Little Prince, 7


That might be my favorite passage in the story, besides the bit with the fox. The Little Prince is one of those children's books that I reread all the time because it means different things to me as I grow up, but it always fills me with a kind of sweet melancholy.

I tried to make him seem isolated. I started putting in a background but then I just didn't like it; I was going to put him on the asteroid, with the bell jar strewn aside, but I just didn't like how it was turning out. In any case, when I visit the land of tears I'm never thinking of the surroundings. It's like I'm trapped in my own head.
