Simon & Schuster publish the print and ebook versions in the US, but it's not on their Australian website so I doubt they have Australian ebook rights.

If Cloudstreet - one of the most popular and critically acclaimed Australian novels - were legally available as an ebook in Australia, it would be on every Australian ebook site.

Penguin is Tim Winton's print Australian publisher - they have just released a new version of Cloudstreet to tie-in with the mini-series screening this month. Why there isn't an Australian ebook is a question for them, not Simon & Schuster.
