Book Reading: 'It's Our Turn to Eat' By Michella Wrong- Discussions by PEN Kenya, 14th June @ Kenya National Theatre
PEN Kenya invites you to an afternoon of readings and discussion of Michella Wrong's 'It's our Turn to Eat'.
DATE: SUNDAY 14 JUNE 2009
TIME: 2-5 PM
VENUE: KENYA NATIONAL THEATRE (Main Hall)
Previous libel suits against local booksellers have led to fear and intimidation and the book is currently unavailable in stores. It contains crucial issues for the country, for which reason PEN Kenya endeavors to make it available to the wider public. The books will be sold at a reasonable price of ksh. 900.
Subsequent readings, discussions and book sales will be held around the country. We hope that with more people accessing such information we can take the chance to further reflect on who we are as a country and as a people- our values, practices, institutions and lives- which will be vital in the movement towards sustainable and lasting change.

Hi? have you tried making an e book for this book? I think it will reach a larger audience and possibly make more sales.

@Moses,
The E -book version which was unfinished was leaked on to the net a few months before the final printed copy and was under huge circulation for quite some time.
But you are right, they should have an audiobook or final edited ebook version for easier circulation. Its a well known fact that Cops cant tell a computer monitor from a TV so hidding the book in soft copy might work better than carrying a hardcopy around.
