In effect, the book describes a situation of cold war between Britain and the Soviet Union, though the term did not yet exist. Many elements which were to become familiar in the background of s and s thrillers - an accelerated arms race, development of secret weapons, intensive espionage and counter-espionage around these weapons projects, political and social subversion, and the tendency to promote right-wing dictatorships as allies against Communism - are already present in this book, three decades earlier. This might have prompted the decision to republish it in Specifically, the book was written in the direct aftermath of the General Strike which seemed to put the spectre of a Socialist Revolution on the British agenda - highly unwelcome to people of Shute's persuasions. Peter L. Moran, the narrator, is agent to Lord Arner. Driving home after a dinner in Winchester, he picks up Maurice Lenden, who in had been a fellow pilot in the Royal Flying Corps. The story tells how Lenden had been flying a photographic espionage mission for the Russians, how he came to be doing that, and discusses the morality of acting as a traitor to his country. As in Marazan , Shute expresses respect for the Italian Fascist movement of the time. Philip Stenning the first person narrator of Marazan appears again in this novel, once again portrayed as a 'rough diamond' with a debatable sense of moral justice. Shute's evident sympathy to Italian Fascism is explained in a passage in the book. In the seventh chapter Moran, wounded from his crash landing in Italy, considers his options and comes to the conclusion that "I had to get allies. I was up against a Bolshevik organization; the most obvious people in Italy to set against the Bolsheviks were the Fascisti. In the later chapters of the book, Moran meets Captain Frazzini, the local Fascist leader: "I liked the look of him. He was a man of my own age, very tall and straight, and with a tanned, unshaven face. He had a very high forehead, and in some peculiar way he had the look of a leader in spite of his three-days' beard. When Frazzini had roused his men to raid the secret Communist base, Moran remarks: "His force of Fascisti paraded in the square. Spoiler alert: it wasn't. I really like how the story evolved throughout, and it was quite exciting without going too far concerning the importance of possible consequences e. One certain character honestly did not appeal very much to me at When I reached page 40 of this book, I was kind of surprised. One certain character honestly did not appeal very much to me at all and was annoying with their constant indecision, even as more things were at stake. However, the other characters were believable and easy to sympathise with, especially the main character, Peter Moran. There were scenes which felt unnecessary, for example Mr. Moran meeting the young pilot at the train station. Overall, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it since I didn't know anything about the author or the plot as I picked it up, and I would say that it was worth the read. Sep 07, Jeff Cliff rated it liked it. A fascinating glimpse into the point of view in britain, before WW2 but after WW1. Those days of leather flight jacket wearing men controlling deathtrap contraptions flying through the air faster than normal people could travel.

When men were men, women could be forced to drink wine to shut them up and you could get away with flaying the skin off of a human being in a town square in the more civilized parts of europe. A vastly alien world compared to today and an interesting one to look back on, if somewhat horrifying in retrospect. I think this was the first book I read in English, 27 years ago, after my aunt gave me three or four books that some English tourists had left behind after renting their summer house. The book itself didn't make much of an impression on me. I was hoping for a spy thriller, but I can't remember being particularly thrilled - I suppose the style is somewhat dated. The main thing I remember from the book is the portrayal of the Italian fascists, which is Mar 20, Vivian rated it really liked it. As usual, Nevil Shute kept me thoroughly entertained. One of an excellent story tellers very early books, it shows a little. An excellent story line but the balance of words given to each part of the story could have been better. Some parts were stretched out and others were dealt with too quickly. Having said that, it was clear that NS was on his way to be a real winner. Early work of Nevil Shute Set against a background of the early years of aviation and English society and politics in the s this is an account of ordinary people in an extraordinary situation. Enjoyable story and interesting insights into the period. The book was published in Nov 14, Cindy rated it really liked it. Another good one from the most exceptional storyteller! The author has a way of pulling me in every time. I really feel like I know the characters. He also does a good job with suspense in this one as well! Not one of Shrivelled Newt's best I'm a great fan of Nevil Shute but this one takes a long time to say very little. This story is curiously uninvolving and seems to lack his customary comfortable command of simple phrases and descriptions. Nevertheless it is worth a read and has an unexpected climax. May 17, Louise rated it liked it. Not my favourite Nevil Shute book. I usually enjoy Nevil Shute's books. Not this one. Mar 24, Sharon Zink rated it really liked it Shelves: The narrator encounters an old friend on a road one dark night and so becomes involved in an errand of espionage for the Soviets, which he manages to foil. Jul 21, Verity W rated it liked it Shelves: on-the-pending-shelf. A bit dated - but a cracking thriller if you can ignore the really quite outdated attitudes to non-brits. Bit of a slow start but worth persevering. I picked this out of a stack of books at Paramount Books in Manchester without quite realising what I had. I'd only read On the Beach before, you see, and that's quite a different beast. It would be wrong to compare the two, as such. But I loved this book almost as much; and I was carried away by it and surprised by it - I kept expecting it to turn the way an Alastair MacLean might, but of course Shute's heroes are never just that. Lovely, lively find. Feb 19, Ann added it. Outstanding read! This is Shute's second book, written when he was still using his surname, Norway. It's a dated spy novel, but perfectly readable and with the authentic voice one expects from Shute. I waited many months for the library to obtain a copy, and now I'll request a hold on one of the others that I haven't been able to find. Reading Shute--always a treat. Jul 01, Jackie rated it did not like it Shelves: books-i-own , bad-read , crime. I've read most of Nevil Shute's books and enjoyed them very much but not this one. It was written in and this is clearly shown in the different attitudes British people have towards foreigners. It would definitely fall foul of the politically correct brigade if written today. But it is hardly the author's fault that the world has changed since his era and this isn't why I didn't enjoy the book.

  • Remembering on the Beach
    A COMMENTARY BY PHILIP BEIDLER Remembering On the Beach efore World War II, Hollywood scared people to death with mad scientists and monsters. During World War II they specialized in strutting Nazis and villainous Japs. After the war, political subversives mixed with Bspace creatures, and vice versa; as importantly, in what had come to be called the nuclear age, a whole new category of fear film centered on atomic mutants: Them; Godzilla; Attack of the Crab Monsters; It Came From Beneath the Sea. More directly, Invasion USA. (1952) combined fear of nuclear attack with communist takeover, helping to usher in the new Cold War genre of Soviet/US atomic mass destruction movies culminating in such boomer classics as Fail Safe and Dr. Strangelove, both issued in 1964. Less frequently remembered, perhaps because slightly older—albeit now decidedly more interesting for its emphasis on the human depiction of nuclear aftermath than on the Pentagon-Kremlin mechanics of initiating wars of mutual annihilation—is the one that first got the attention of popular audiences on the subject. That would beOn the Beach (1959), Stanley Kramer’s elegiac representation of the dying remnant of a world in the wake of global atomic warfare. In the golden age of Technicolor and Cinemascope—and to this degree anticipating its better known successors—it was a black-and-white film of stark, muted, austere genius, featuring career performances from a number of important actors: Gregory Peck, Ava Gardner, a pre-Psycho Anthony Perkins, and Fred Astaire, in his first purely dramatic role. In all these respects, it became a movie that challenged people who saw it never to look at the world in the same way again.

    Sarah Chambers (9105913) 1 Professor David Pascoe & Dr Roselinde Supheert MA Thesis Literatuur en Cultuurkritiek 13473 Words 30th July 2014 Fledgling Post-War Communities in Nevil Shute’s A Town Like Alice and Round the Bend In two separate articles written in January 2014, American climate activist Dan Bloom called for “a powerful Nevil Shute-like novel and movie about global warming” that could “help awaken the world to the dangers of climate change” (“New”). Nevil Shute’s 1957 novel On the Beach “stirred the world’s consciousness about what a so-called ‘nuclear winter’ might look like” (“New”) and Bloom suggests that a climate-change novel with “the power of On the Beach … could serve as a wake up call for humankind” (“New”). As he proceeds to explain, “Shute’s On the Beach made the consequences of nuclear war real, and therefore, unthinkable” (“New”). Bloom imagines a “Nevil Shute Literary Award for Climate-Themed Novels” that would offer a million-dollar reward for a powerful climate-change novel (“A Nevil”). Dan Bloom’s faith in On the Beach’s well-documented ability to shape its readers’ imagination of nuclear fallout is understandable. As Daniel Pearson suggests, the story’s power to mobilize public opinion was such that Stanley Kramer’s 1959 film version became “part of the struggle over the meaning of ‘the bomb’ and the narrative of the Cold War in the United States Government … new ways of dealing with unflattering films would have to be developed both by the department of defence and the Eisenhower administration.” What is striking in Bloom’s on-line articles is his casual twenty-first century reference to Nevil Shute, as if this hugely successful twentieth-century novelist were still a household name.

  • The Social Costs of Marine Litter Along the East China Sea: Evidence from Ten Coastal Scenic Spots of Zhejiang Province, China
    sustainability Article The Social Costs of Marine Litter along the East China Sea: Evidence from Ten Coastal Scenic Spots of Zhejiang Province, China Manhong Shen 1,2, Di Mao 1 , Huiming Xie 2,* and Chuanzhong Li 3 1 School of Economics, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou 310027, China; [email protected] (M.S.); [email protected] (D.M.) 2 School of Business, Ningbo University, Ningbo 315211, China 3 Department of Economics, University of Uppsala, 751 20 Uppsala, Sweden; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 28 February 2019; Accepted: 18 March 2019; Published: 25 March 2019 Abstract: Marine litter poses numerous threats to the global environment. To estimate the social costs of marine litter in China, two stated preference methods, namely the contingent valuation model (CVM) and the choice experiment model (CEM), were used in this research. This paper conducted surveys at ten different beaches along the East China Sea in Zhejiang province in October 2017. The results indicate that approximately 74.1% of the interviewees are willing to volunteer to participate in clean-up programmes and are willing to spend 1.5 days per month on average in their daily lives, which equates to a potential loss of income of USD 1.08 per day. The willingness to pay for the removal of the main types of litter ranges from USD 0.12–0.20 per visitor across the four sample cities, which is mainly determined by the degree of the removal, the crowdedness of the beach and the visitor’s perception. The social costs are USD 1.08–1.40 per visitor when the contingent valuation method is applied and USD 1.00–1.07 per visitor when the choice experiment method is adopted, which accounts for 8–14% of the beach entrance fee.

However, note that many search engines truncate at a much shorter size, about 160 characters. Your suggestion will be processed as soon as possible. Author Bio for Norway, Nevil Shute. Shute's novels are written in a simple, highly readable style, with clearly delineated plot lines. Where there is a romantic element, sex is referred to only obliquely. Many of the stories are introduced by a narrator who is not a character in the story. The most common theme in Shute's novels is the dignity of work, spanning all classes, whether an Eastern European bar "hostess" (Ruined City) or brilliant boffin (No Highway). Another recurrent theme is the bridging of social barriers such as class (Lonely Road and Landfall), race (The Chequer Board) or religion (Round the Bend). The Australian novels are individual hymns to that country, with subtle disparagement of the mores of the USA (Beyond the Black Stump) and overt antipathy towards the post-World War II socialist government of Shute's native Britain (The Far Country and In the Wet). Shute lived a comfortable middle-class English life. His heroes tended to be middle class: solicitors, doctors, accountants, bank managers, engineers. Usually, like himself, they had enjoyed the privilege of university, not then within the purview of the lower classes. However (as in Trustee from the Toolroom), Shute valued the honest artisan and his social integrity and contributions to society more than the contributions of the upper classes.
