Goodbye, Mr. Chips by James HiltonMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
A short story on the meaning of life seen through the eyes of an elderly British classics teacher who dedicated 65 years to one boarding school for British youth. His pleasures and heartbreaks challenge the reader to realize that even a person who is not famous or rich can have a meaningful life by sharing it with others and dedication to an ideal, spouse, or profession.
The value of the book is that it shows that all persons can have a life of significance, even those who may have little social standing or recognition.
