Ordering Lancelot a Kiwi-English or Australian novel (1,4,4,5)
I believe the answer is:
a town like alice
'australian novel' is the definition.
(novel by Nevil Shute who lived in Australia)
'ordering lancelot a kiwi-english' is the wordplay.
'ordering' is an anagram indicator.
'english' becomes 'E' (abbreviation).
'lancelot'+'a'+'kiwi'='lancelotakiwi'
'lancelotakiwi' anagrammed gives 'atownlikealic'.
'atownlikealic'+'e'='A TOWN LIKE ALICE'
'or' is the link.
(Other definitions for a town like alice that I've seen before include "Book by Nevil Shute" , "For a novel" .)
