Brick Lane vs. Germaine Greer

I've been uninspired by the whole row over the filming of Monica Ali's book Brick Lane. I thought it was a pretty poorly written book, not particularly literary, and actually quite disappointing in its lack of exploration of the themes its raises. Which is why I haven't commented until now. However, I rather liked Germaine Greer's view on the matter in her piece in the Guardian. She frames it up spot on:

"You don't have the moral right to stop the process [of beng misrepresented], but you must have a moral right to refuse to cooperate in your own misrepresentation."
