Book review : Bitter Chocolate by Pinki Virani

[s1joshi]

Hello Friends

Today topic on Satyamev Jayate covered a crucial topic on Child Sexual Abuse. Its much more prevalent than one could have ever imagined. Researches says almost one out of two kids go through the pains.

Its much bigger and broader a problem to be covered in 1- 1.5 hr episode, and you might find "Bitter Chocolate" by Pinki Virani a worth read. Especially if you have young kids at home. When I read this book almost a year back, Many a times I found an utter feeling of disgust, disbelief, shock, scare and pain. The way our system handles the sensitive issue, its shocking to say the least.
