Review title: Disappointed
Product review: I read all the positive reviews and looked forward to reading "Radical Hospitality." I had hoped that this would be a book addressing Benedictine hospitality in a style similar to Father Timothy Gallagher's excellent guides to Ignatian spirituality. Based on the book's description and reviews, I expected "Radical Hospitality" to explain how Benedictine rule can be applied practically to one's own life to better develop the virtue of hospitality. It is not. The book's conversational, rambling style is easy enough to read, but I found it lacking in the kind of substance that inspires reflection and action. Anecdotes, generalizations, and flowery writing abound. Clarity of purpose does not.As a Catholic Christian, the statement that the Eucharist has such power because "it is founded in our food experience" and "food is powerful" finally prompted me to give up on "Radical Hospitality." The Eucharist is powerful because it is Jesus Christ.
