Poorly adapted Kindle book,
By R. Gordon ""A smile brings a smile."" (Bolingbrook, IL United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: And the Word Was Made Flesh (Kindle Edition)
Very disappointed by this Kindle product. Nothing is Kindle enabled. One can't even adjust the font size. The print is very small. The zoom slightly enlarges the type. If one can read font size 3 this book is for you.Thomas Keating is a wonderful author and contemplative. I was looking forward to reading his homilies. Don't be disappointed. Avoid the Kindle version and purchase the hard copy.
