Monica Ali talks about life after her hugely successful first novel, 'Brick Lane', why she chose to write about a small village in Portugal for her follow-up, 'Alentejo Blue', and the recurring themes of exile and adapting to foreign cultures in her stories. The interview also contains an amusing anecdote (concerning a children's book about a dog's flatulence), and evidence of the author's interest in freedom of speech.
