A modern re-telling of the story of Job that asks the questions religion attempts to answer. JB suffers all manner of tragedy and wants to know why. Watching from above, the two narrators debate the answer in verse.

A stunning work in verse, excellent for understanding the poetic nature of modern religion-based staging.

Pretty dang boring. It is interesting for what it accomplished in spiritual literature, but i am not that big a fan of spiritual literature, and it is still pretty dang boring.
