Why do some people see Drawing Number One as a simple hat while others think it is an elephant inside a boa constrictor What is the meaning of these perspectives in the story The Little Prince?

Answer 1

I never read the entire book, be it known, I am familiar with cartoon adaptations and such like. The author was an airman in the French Air Force, missing in action inh World War II (not related to the story) I gather the pilor(in the tale) and the alien were inspecting something akin to Rohrschach blots. People would see abstract ink blot drawings differently. that is the perspective. I can"t hep but think that going beyond that there is a lot in common, perhaps event he prototype- of I Dream of Jeannie. I get the impression the French airman is forced down in North Africa, where one would have Arabic mythology. It always struck me (Little Prince) had Homosexual overtones. 9Jeannie, clearly did not) iot can be argued that I dream of Jeannie is a herterosexual variant-aside from being the only Occult service comedy- of the St.Exup[erby short novel.
