Hi there. Thank you for posting information about my new book, The Song of the Showing of Love. It is her entire revelation paraphrased in modern english poetry, an effort to make her thought as clear and accessible as possible to modern readers. We need her wisdom to confront the problems of today's material world. I'm sorry it's so pricy but at 600 pages it had to be. If you are fortunate enough to own a kindle the kindle version will retail on amazon in a couple of days for (I think) $10.00. If any of you buy it and read it I would love to hear back from you.
