The huge success of The Polygamist on Netflix has introduced thousands of people to author Sue Nyathis bestselling novel, but copyright campaigners say many readers are finding the book through illegally shared PDF copies instead of buying it.
The book, first published in 2012, has gained new attention after its Netflix adaptation.
As interest in the story grows, pirated PDF copies are being widely shared on social media and WhatsApp. Pirated printed copies have also appeared in Kenya with concerns the problem is spreading to other countries.
