I've had it with these tiny cover photos. I'm 66 yrs. old and my optometrist says it's just a matter of time before my cataracts ripen and he can rip them out and put artificial lens in. In the meantime about half the book covers look like a spectrum of shades of grey from white to black. The only way I can pick a book is to click on the unknown cover so that the name of the book appears. Having to do this for the 500+ books waiting to be read is very time consuming. Surprisingly I haven't entirely lost the ability to read text yet and so my reading can go on even though it is a bit fuzzy.
It's obvious that the people at Amazon who are making the Kindle UI decisions are twenty year olds with perfect 20/20 vision.

Yes, it works fine for me. Here are the steps I used, with pictures, to get things as much like the Collections view in the previous version as I can.
Step 1: use settings to turn on collections in list view.
- Swipe down from the top
- Select All Settings
- Navigate to Device Options / Advanced Options / Home & Library / Collections
- Choose either "Show favorites in Library" or "Show all in Library"
- Touch the X to close the setting page
Step 2: set your library to List Mode
- Touch the 3 lines just below the 3 dots in the upper right corner, see screenshot #1 for the location
- Choose your favorite sort order in the Sort by section
- Choose List under View options, see screenshot #2
Step 3: set your filter to Collections
- touch the three bars with the dots on them just below the search box, see screenshot #1 for the location
- choose Collections under Type, see screenshot #3
Open a collection. You should see a list view. See screenshot #4. Note that the sort order within collections is separate from the sort order of the main library screen, so you can adjust it if you wish.
