In Reply to: What was your reaction to the book? posted by edta on April 8, 2000 at 16:30:55:
Read it years ago as a kid probably as part of "approved" reading in a somber private school (dunno whether this means that it could have been boring to today's more sound bite attuned book readers - am 33 yrs now and read it when I was about 11 or 13 or so). Anyway, it was extremely good describing Conway (only name I remember) and everyone else in Shangri-La and since I am such a sucker for geography, culture and other such stuff, i know I would have liked it regardless of its true quality. But, I think it was good.If it helps I am into science fiction etc. so that aspect may be what made me like the book. But I am still a bit sceptical because many people and I am no exception, enjoyed something when young and compel others to see it in the same light but it is never quite as wonderful as the first time (at least this is ONE reason why many are disappointed by movies based on books if they have read the book before - really not the only explanation - other more legitimate ones may exist).
When our choice was Shakespeare or more Shakespeare (all good but diversity is always even better), this was really a welcome change.
