Choose another writer in this calendar: by name: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Nevil Shute (1899-1960) - original name Nevil Shute Norway British-born Australian novelist, an accomplished storyteller, who best-known work, ON THE BEACH (1957), was adapted into screen in 1959. The picture became one of the most celebrated anti-Bomb films, and attracted much attention in Moscow because it was the first full-length American feature to have a premiere in the Soviet Union. Shute was educated as an aeronautical engineer and he used his expertise on technical issues and knowledge of aviation in his books. Also his novels PIED PIPER (1942) and A TOWN LIKE ALICE (1959) have been made into major films. "A beautiful aircraft is the expression of the genius of a great engineer who is also a great artist. It is impossible for that man to carry out the whole of the design himself; he works through a design office staffed by a hundred draughtsmen or more. A hundred minds, each with their own less competent ideas, are striving to modify the chief designer's original conception. If the design is to appear in the end as a great artistic unity, the chief designer must be a man of immensely powerful will, capable of imposing his idea and his way of doing things on each of his hundred draughtsmen, so that each one of them is too terrified to insert any of his own ideas." (from No Highway Nevil Shute was born in Ealing, Middlesex. His father was Arthur Hamilton Norway, C.B., an assistant secretary of the General Post Office in London, and his mother was the former Mary Louisa Gadsden. Shute was educated at schools in Oxford, Shrewsbury, and Woolrich. After witnessing the Easter Rising in Dublin, where he was a volunteer stretcher-bearer, Shute entered the Balliol College, Oxford. He spent the later stages of World War at military service and continued his in Oxford, graduating in 1922.

NEVIL SHUTE welcome to Big Bill's Nevil Shute Stuff! He wrote "On the Beach" and "A Town Like Alice" don't you know! S Buy Nevil Shute Books Through My Amazon Links! U.S.A. U.K. AIRCRAFT A somewhat abashed Nevil Shute sought out a university friend at A.P. Watt, the respected literary agent. They were acting at the time for Conan Doyle, Kipling and Edgar Wallace and it was they who persuaded Cassell to reconsider and publish the novel. Nevil Shute's adoption of his pseudonym also dates from the publication of "Marazan". At the time he was enjoying a fairly important job with Vickers, the aircraft company, and he judged that they might take exception to one of their employees indulging in fanciful novel-writing. So he adopted a nom-de-plume by simply omitting his true surname, Norway. At the beginning, Nevil Shute embarked on an aeronautical career as a calculator with the de Haviland Aircraft Co. Ltd. The itch to write was already upon him: perhaps Italy stimulated the poetical side of his writing ability, for he toyed with poetry for a while, but he found it too demanding. REWARD His ability to write novels continued undiminished despite his wartime duties, and increasingly he gained a following of admirers who read each new book avidly. He began to enjoy the reputation of being a storyteller of some worth. His books were not long or complex, their storylines were easy to absorb, but they made compulsive reading, as is shown in the sheer number of reprints published through the years.

Shute, Nevil On the Beach Published by Mandarin (Paperback Click here to visit our bookshop where you can buy this book. Following the devastation of a nuclear world war, Europe, America and most of the northern hemisphere is annihilated. Only a few remote pockets of the Earth remain habitable, and the area around Melbourne is one of these... With quiet but shattering compassion, Nevil Shute describes how a small group of survivors heroically try to cope with their last months, weeks or days alive in a world which has inconceivably died before them. On the Beach was made into the unforgettable film starring Gregory Peck, Ava Gardner, Fred Astaire and Anthony Perkins. "Shute's most considerable achievement... A quietly and deliberately terrible book, all the more terrible for its characteristic half-muted tones and subdued colours." - Daily Telegraph. "Shute's spine-chilling fantasy...both moving and horrifying." - The Listener. Category: Australian Fiction ISBN 0749304081 Order Code: RHRH000951

No. 110: NEVIL SHUTE by John H. Lienhard Click here for audio of Episode 110. Today, we meet Nevil Shute Norway. The University of Houston's College of Engineering presents this series about the machines that make our civilization run, and the people whose ingenuity created them. D o you remember On The Beach ? It was a wrenching, understated story told through the eyes of the last survivors of nuclear war, waiting to die in Australia. Thirty years ago, the best-selling book, and a fine movie based on it, made a disturbingly realistic case against the nuclear stalemate. The author was Nevil Shute Norway, born in England in 1899. He wrote under the name Nevil Shute. After serving in WW-I, he trained at Oxford to be an aeronautical engineer. From 1922 to 1933 he worked in airplane and dirigible companies. He also published his first four novels, one of which was made into a movie. He published nothing more until 1938. During that time he formed an airplane manufacturing company called Airspeed, Ltd. When he left the company to join WW-II in 1939, he'd built it up to a thousand employees. He went back to his books in 1938 and wrote roughly one a year until he died in Australia in 1960. Shute's books are low-key, but his plots are assembled like Swiss watches every piece fits perfectly, and you simply can't put one down after you're 50 pages into it. They also contain astounding technical realism far more than you'd think could hold his readers' attention, much less keep them spellbound.
