The Little Prince

Remarks: Thanks to the immense efforts of the translator, Neli Tarba and her daughter, Asida.

In 2005, Asida wrote: "In 1984 it appeared in the Abkhaz language for the Abkhaz readers. The book was poorly published, even the author's drawings weren't colored and the paper not of a good quality - but despite of everything it was published and started its life in Abkhaz! The one who read it once in Russian and then in Abkhaz could appreciate and notice that it sounds wonderful in the Abkhaz language. One can feel the beauty of the tale expressed in the Abkhaz language! One can say the author of 'The Little Prince' never dies! This is the work of a genius! Such a writer is the son of all nations around the world! Who could say he is not Abkhaz - a fairy-tale child - the Little Prince!"

Abkhazian is a North-Caucasian language
