Chris's Response
| Hey, Kenneth.
I recieved your letter late last week, and I was low on paper (full sheets) that were blank on both sides until today with two letter pads from the comissary. In response to your letter, firstly, and I quote the Inmate Handbook, "Paperback Books only, must be mailed directly to you from the publisher, not a book store," (Also Used Books are not allowed; NEW/Mint Only) "and require prior approval of the administration of Chief of Security" (or Major David, specifically, as someone from Books Thru Bars had talked with as well),"Books not coming directly from the publisher will be returned to sender." This had met my concern and curiosity after reading of your intentions to send a book. Unfortunately, just yesterday, the 21st, the book had arrived to the facility, But I got the Notice Form that I signed and suggested they return the book (return postage at my expense). You May want to contact that bookstore you ordered the book from to confirm refunding of at least the book price. Consolation; the comissary does offer a copy of a Holy Quran for $11.95, and a generous fan donated very well recently, so I've ordered a copy that I'll recieve this coming Friday. If you wish, you may donate $15 to my Inmate Account (counting the $3 fee deduction), and I'll still cite you as the individual who gifted me a Quran. Thank you, Kenneth. |
