11 4 y separately published work icon Beyond the Black Stump Nevil Shute , ( trans. Ulla Lassen with title Det forjaettede land ) Copenhagen : C. A. Reitzels , 1956 Z275102 1956 single work novel Set on a station in the North West of Western Australia, in Perth and in the USA. It is a curious patchwork of fiction, distortion, half-truth and social criticism ... And the honest history graduate from the University of Western Australia would have to agree that Mr Shute would do well to enrol as a student in the Department of History if he is not to perpetrate further travesties of the truth. (F. K. Crowley, Westerly No. 3 1956, pp41-3.)
