Outrage over The Pedophile’s Guide to Love and Pleasure may have convinced Amazon.com to stop selling the book, despite the company’s initial insistence that to do so would be “censorship.” The controversial e-book is no longer available on the site, Gawker notes, though it’s not immediately apparent who removed it. Another byproduct of all the attention: Sales of the book went up by more than 101,000%. It went from No. 158,221 on Amazon’s list of best-selling Kindle books to No. 146 in less than a day.
