The limited budget of the series was a problem - I remember about half of it being set in the same bar, like Cheers gone Nazi. Also the last episode is more like Fassbinder's exegesis on the themes and subtexts of the novel than an actual wrap-up, a bold move that only half-works.

I really need to read the de Sainte Exupery cos I've been meaning to for a while I think I half read one of the mail pilot books a while back.
Saw a film about him too.

I really love Night Flight but haven't read this one. I think I bought it in French once but then was too lazy to actually read it.

I missed this one, but probably would have voted for The Good Companions. It’s really interesting view into a vanishing world, vanishing even in 1929.
