Literary scenes

I'm excited to share my new piece at The Curator, To Tame A Friend.

An illustration from The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupery

A little bonus information:

1) We named the untamed feral cat "Deck Kitty". DK is still around, watching us and taking small risks of getting closer, particularly when there's a patch of sun in which to rest.
2) When I first read "The Little Prince", it was as a third-year French student. I wonder if my memory of the scene was intensified by reading the story in a second language.

I'd love to hear about a scene from a book that's stuck with you. Feel free to share in the comment section below. Merci!
