The book that Kenyan bookstores have all been to scared to stock is available to all (if you have a credit card) as an ebook through Harper Collins.

Michela Wrong's recent book, "It's Our Turn to Eat - The Story of a Kenyan Whistle Blower" has upset quite a few big names in the political arena and bookstores nationwide have been scared to stock it for fear of liability.

Do we splash logos, banners and pictures of emaciated children across the screens because we sincerely believe it will help or because it makes going to sleep easier?
