Lost Horizon

The 3 stars are for the captivating narrative of the story and the language used.It helps you imagine a lot in this novel and which otherwise would have been a boring book.This book never feels boring but I have to admit that it isn't that interesting or adventurous as I would have liked.The core of this novel is a description of this beautiful and maybe mythical place in Tibet and the mysteries of a lamassery existing there.There is much of philosophical discourses which are worth reading and for that reason I consider it a better book than “The Alchemist” if you are into that sort of moral and philosophical stuff.But in the end the protagonist leaves the attractions of the Blue moon valley and the secret of the Lamas and everything behind without any reason and the narrative stops abruptly; leaving many things to our imagination that might have happened hence. But what I cant fathom is why he chose to leave everything.Apart from that bit and the fact that sometimes the book gets very descriptive and conversation and events become less.In the end I liked the book and would like to read it again.
