THE NEVIL SHUTE NORWAY
FOUNDATION
PURPOSE: The purpose of the Nevil Shute Norway Foundation is to further public awareness of the writings and philosophy of Nevil Shute Norway. To fulfill this purpose, the Foundation organizes and conducts conventions and celebrations of the author's work; maintains a lending library of the author's books, audio tapes of those books, video tapes of films based on those books, unpublished manuscripts, and other references to the author's works, such library being open to all members of the public; supports the Nevil Shute Memorial Library in Alice Springs; assists in the development of educational programs involving Nevil Shute's writing; maintains a Nevil Shute web site; and conducts such other activities as may serve the general purpose of the Foundation. LEGAL STATUS: The Nevil Shute Norway Foundation is registered as a not-for-profit corporation in New Mexico. There is a board of directors consisting of Heather Mayfield, President, Shirley Norway, Vice president, Dan Telfair, Secretary and Treasurer, and two other board members at large. Because of the expense involved ($500 nonrefundable filing fee, plus CPA and legal fees), application has not been made to the Internal Revenue Service to gain tax exempt status for the Foundation. That may be accomplished in the future if donations justify the expense involved. If so, and if the application for tax exempt status is granted, donations to the Foundation would be tax deductible. At the present time, donations are not tax deductible.

    Niveau Unterhaltungswert Spannung Humor Aufmachung Angebote zu On the Beach / Shute, Nevil Jetzt kaufen Jetzt verkaufen Pro: Spannung und Faszination pur. Buch erweckt beim Leser sehr heftige Gefühle, gute Gestaltung der Charktere, Thematik, Handlung.. Kontra: mag schwache Gemüter verzweifeln lassen Mein heutiger Bericht wird heute von einem Buch handeln. Ich will Euch dieses Mal keinen Bericht zu einem aktuellen Bestseller liefern, sondern eigentlich genau das Gegenteil tun. Ich werde Euch einen Schmöker aus dem Jahre 1957 ans Herz legen, der bereits zweimal erfolgreich verfilmt wurde und aufgrund der momentan herrschenden, sehr brisanten politischen Situation aktueller denn je ist. Ob man nun seinen Blickpunkt auf den Irak, oder auch auf Nordkorea richtet möchte ich hier außer Acht lassen.
    Nun aber zum Buch, welches ich gelesen habe, welches mich begeistert und zugleich verzweifeln lassen hat. Mit Sicherheit eines jener Bücher, die keine Seele unberührt lassen und möge sie noch so abgebrüht sein...

NEVIL SHUTE'S ORDEAL
by John H. Lienhard
Click here for audio of Episode 1159. Today, Nevil Shute predicts the chilling anonymity of war. 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. I n 1938, the English engineer Nevil Norway was eased out of the company he'd formed, Airspeed Ltd.. In his autobiography of that part of his life, Norway says it was probably time to move on. Two kinds of people shape companies, he says: Starters and Runners. He'd done a fine creative job starting the company, but he wasn't suited to running it day by day. So Norway quit making planes for Douglas, Fokker and others. As war threatened, he turned to what'd been his hobby since 1928. He'd been writing books and stories. One story had even been made into a movie. He hadn't wanted the engineers he worked with to think he was frivolous, so he'd written under his Christian names, Nevil Shute. Today we know Nevil Shute for many books and several movies made from them: On the Beach A Town Called Alice The Pied Piper His second movie contract came in just as he quit making airplanes, so he was able to go to eastern France, near the Swiss Alps, to write
