Most of Shute’s works are in the public domain, apart from some private letters and other items in collections.
These plus other works such as books and articles may be reproduced in excerpt under fair-use clauses for researchers and reviewers.
But that doesn’t mean it’s a free-for-all.
Brief introduction:
The fact that Shute railed against many of the films that were altered to include romance and “traditional” happy ending story aspects is all the more reason for us to assume that he was indeed writing a “how-to” guide for life according to his own morality.
