Our Turn to Eat Available via M-Pesa
Michaela Wrong’s book, “It’s Our Turn to Eat” is still not being openly sold in Nairobi in most book stores, so a small group of enterprising Kenyans have got together to import some copies of “It’s Our Turn to Eat” into Nairobi and sell them via the web, using Mpesa. They’re starting off with an experimental 150 copies, if it works they’ll step up the numbers. The books are available now, on: http://www.thekenyashop.com/
It doesn’t surprise me but it does disappoint me that bookshops should act like that. Also I do feel that that this could, to the benefit of avid readers I think, see these bookshops become alienated if (it has not happened already) and lead the death most
I hope the author of this book is paying you a commission because you certainly are working hard to sell it. Michaela Wrong is wrong on this as she usually is writing about Africa. Remember they said Githongo feared for his life well he is now galivanting around Kenya quite safely.
Now you complain the book is not being sold in bookshops. The activists and so called democrats want to force private businesses to sell a book that advances their point of view. How democratic is that huh? Kememia if you are an avid reader get the book read it and shut up. Dont try to ram the book down our throats we all know only Luos are interested in reading this book. Anyway this is an exercise in futility if the book is good and so sensational then it will sell, if not then it will fail.
it seems to be an interesting read but that price is a little too hefty. i mean dan brown’s new book the lost symbol is a little less than 2k
The price has been dropped to KSh1500
It is not fair to compare between junk like Dan Brown and a real book…
real book? laughable! i hate to imagine what you read.
What has Figy drunk?
