    Publisher's Synopsis

    J. B.: A Play in Verse is Archibald MacLeish's Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning play, based on the biblical story of Job.The story of a twentieth-century American banker and millionaire whom God commands be stripped of his family and wealth, but who refuses to turn his back on God. J.B.: A Play in Verse sparked a national conversation about the nature of God, the meaning of hope, and the role of the artist in society."It was an inspiration to select the Biblical figure of Job as a prism in which to reflect the suffering and the injustice of our time."??-??The Atlantic
