A Town Like Alice es una novela del autor británico Nevil Shute, publicada en 1950. La historia sigue a Jean Paget, una joven inglesa que trabaja en Malasia durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Cuando los japoneses invaden el país, Jean y un grupo de mujeres y niños son capturados y obligados a marchar a través de la jungla. A pesar de las dificultades, Jean se mantiene fuerte y ayuda a los demás a sobrevivir. Después de la guerra, Jean se traslada a Australia y comienza una nueva vida. Sin embargo, nunca olvida a las personas que conoció en Malasia y decide regresar para ayudar a reconstruir el pueblo donde estuvo prisionera.
Nevil Shute Norway was an English novelist and aeronautical engineer who spent his later years in Australia. He used his full name in his engineering career and Nevil Shute as his pen name to protect his engineering career from inferences by his employers (Vickers) or from fellow engineers that he was "not a serious person" or from potentially adverse publicity in connection with his novels, which included On the Beach and A Town Like Alice.
