Description
A Town Like Alice by Nevil Shute is a timeless novel that blends historical fiction, romance, and adventure. The story follows Jean Paget, a resilient young Englishwoman who survives unimaginable hardship during World War II. Captured by the Japanese in Malaya, she endures a harrowing seven-month death march alongside other women and children. Years later, after inheriting a fortune, Jean returns to Malaya to repay the kindness of those who helped her. But her journey doesn’t end there—it leads her to the vast, unforgiving Australian outback, where she embarks on a bold project to transform a remote settlement into a thriving town.
A gripping tale of endurance, love, and determination, A Town Like Alice showcases Nevil Shute’s masterful storytelling and deep understanding of human resilience. Part war saga, part love story, and part pioneering adventure, the novel remains a favourite among readers who enjoy sweeping historical fiction with strong female protagonists.
