Description

A light aircraft is hijacked and flown into the high Tibetan Himalayas, carrying a small group of passengers to their unknown fate. Among them is Conway, a British consul, who finds himself in a remote valley known as Shangri-La. This legendary paradise is said to be a place of peace and beauty, but is it a utopia or a trap? As the passengers await their fate, they are faced with a choice: can they escape, or do they even want to? James Hilton's epic adventure story is a tale of mystery and intrigue, set against the backdrop of one of literature's most enduring and entrancing utopias. First published in 1933, this book has become a story of human nature and the search for meaning, which continues to appeal to readers to this day.
