Description

HarperCollins is proud to present a range of best-loved, essential classics.

Brookfield wouldn’t be the same without you, and they know it. We all know it. You can stay here till you’re a hundred if you feel like it –indeed, it’s our hope that you will.

Sitting in his chair by the fire on a dark autumn afternoon, a beloved schoolmaster reflects on a long life well lived. Now in old age, Mr. Chipping, or ‘Chips’ as he’s affectionately known by his students, has watched the nineteenth century sail into the twentieth, known love, friendship and war, and felt the lasting wounds of heartbreak and loss.

An immediate bestseller upon publication in 1934, James Hilton’s Goodbye, Mr. Chips is the touching tale of one man’s eventful life and the quiet, meaningful ways he shaped the lives of those around him. It has been adapted for film twice, and today continues to be a poignant and comforting classic for readers old and new.
