— Appears in: The Weekend Australian , 6-7 September 2003; (p. 24) Greer contends that 'the Australian national character derives from the influence of the Aborigines whose dogged resistance to an imported and inappropriate culture has affected our culture more deeply than is usually recognised'. Greer illustrates her argument with reference to Tom Collins' Such is Life : Being Certain Extracts from the Diary of Tom Collins and the short stories of Henry Lawson.
