It seemed like a reasonable assumption that a 90-year-old book was in the public domain.

- davidjohnstone 14y agoAustralia has an author's death plus fifty years copyright expiration for books where the author died in or before 1954. Unfortunately, I think we're "catching up" to the US with our copyright laws. There's http://gutenberg.net.au/ http://gutenberg.net.au/ (no formal relationship with Project Gutenberg) which makes works available that are public domain in Australia (but not the US), and this has The Great Gatsby.
