Romeo and Juliet

E-book links to footnotes are missing

The one star review if for the ebook and not for Shakespeare’s play, of course. I’ve bought quite a few Penguin Shakespeare plays from iTunes and they’re all excellent because all the links to the footnotes are included as hyperlinks -click on blue text in the play and you jump to the footnote at the end. Sadly in this book the feature is missing. I complained about it to Apple when I first bought the book last year. They gave me a refund and said to try downloading it again in a few months. I now have but they haven’t solved the problem. Instead they’ve just dropped the price. It’s a real shame because, being Shakespeare, the the text is difficult in places and it’s great to be able to jump easily to the explanatory footnotes when you don’t understand a word or phrase. Using the scroll bar it’s next to impossible to navigate to the right reference which makes the footnotes next to useless. Very disappointing Apple or Penguin won’t put this right.
