I took off 1 Star only because the novel was written 90 years ago & the English language has changed so much that at times I had some difficulty understanding what was being said. Other than that, I enjoyed the story very much. The beginning was a slow start, but that didn't last once the main story began. I found myself feeling envious of the main characters! As our world has lately been turned upside down & inside out, I often feel I would be thrilled to find myself in a place such as they found themselves! A place where there is peace & quiet always! No politics!! No war. No greed. No hate. Everyone gets along with the others. Almost no quarreling, & what there is, is really very minor. And THAT was amongst our main characters, not the people of this wonderful land!! Rarely any illness. Living to be over 100 y/o & still be as one in their 40's! Not even THEN beginning to age! Perhaps even living multiple centuries! I'm not ready for THAT, but the rest sounds pretty wonderful! Surrounded by beauty, both man-made & natural. Many thousands of books to read & musical scores to play! And ever more being created! Never a hurry to do something because you've got almost all the time in the world! Who WOULDN'T want to be there? Sounds too good to be true, because it is, but it makes for a lovely story. I'll see a place similar, but ever so much better, & I hope you will as well, just not in this world! Their perfect world is called Shangri-La, mine is called Heaven. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Great story *by C***N on Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2009* Having read some of the reviews on the book, and just myself having finished reading it, it seems people fall into one of two camps: either you get it or you don't. It is the story of a man in the early twentieth century looking for more to life than what he has. Oh, he's got the good pay, the prestige, the job, yet he is unfulfilled. he is not happy. He has a "full" life, but it a meaningless life to him. He doesn't feel like he's actually accomplished anything. So, he and three others are captured and taken to unknown territories. Mallinson is, I think, kind of our everyman character and to a slight degree Conway's conscience. He is also the one who cannot seem to find peace in Shangri-la, a place of idyllic peace and beauty. He needs the loudness of "modern life", whereas Conway seems to have found what he is looking for, ie, the simple life and a purpose for life. His life didn't seem to make sense before arriving, but it now seems to make perfect sense. Where Mallinson sees purgatory or hell, Conway sees heaven. So, in the end, why does he leave? I think he felt a certain responsibility to Mallinson. I think he figures if he can get Mallinson home safely he can go back. I do like the vague ending. You don't know for sure Conway got back. You don't know if the lamas had a "Plan B" to account for maybe Conway leaving. I think he made it back; of course I am a bit of a sucker for a happy ending. There is a definite eastern philosophy slant, which I am all right with, as I am into the subject. Maybe that's part of the reason I like it.One can have their own opinion as to how the story is told, but the story itself is a good one. It is relatively quick reading as well. If you need explosions three times a page, or lots of action, this isn't for you. Not that it's actionless, it just isn't necessarily typical "action/adventure." It was a thoroughly enjoyable read for me though. ## Frequently Bought Together - Lost Horizon: A Novel - The Revenant: A Novel of Revenge --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/8074967-lost-horizon-the-classic-discovery-of-the-mystic-monastery-shangri](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/8074967-lost-horizon-the-classic-discovery-of-the-mystic-monastery-shangri) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
