RB, I hope that once you do read it, you will give us all a synopsis and your thoughts on the book's strengths and weaknesses.

Job is difficult. It seems that Job defends his integrity, but his three friends accuse him of harboring sin. Then a young fella chimes in and says essentially the same thing God says.

The younger man isn't mentioned again when God tells Job to make a sacrifice for his friends who apparently were wrong, yet there seems to be some contradictions between Job's righteousness and God's pronunciations.
