    Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. A very good copy of the hard cover edition, lacking a dust-jacket, in a rather poorly preserved slipcase. Sanglass pamphlet laid in. The text is wholly unmarked, pristine, and the binding is still rather bright and fresh in appearance, with a bit of discoloration and surface spotting to the spine. Abundant wear, fraying, and splitting at the seams of the slipcase. All in all a sharp copy. Arthur Szyk (illustratore).

Signed by Arthur Szyk on the limitation page. Bound in a white quarter leather and gilt-decorated white boards, top edge gilt. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks, binding tight and solid, boards clean with no wear present The Book of Job is a book in the Ketuvim ("Writings") section of the Hebrew Bible (Tanakh) , and the first poetic book in the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. Addressing the problem of theodicy - why a good God permits evil, or more simply, "Why do the righteous suffer?" - it is a rich theological work setting out a variety of perspectives. It has been widely and often extravagantly praised for its literary qualities, with Alfred, Lord Tennyson calling it "the greatest poem of ancient and modern times".

No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks, binding tight and solid, boards clean with no wear present. One of the most graceful and charming stories in ancient literature. Arthur Szyk (June 16, 1894 September 13, 1951) was a graphic artist, book illustrator, stage designer and caricaturist. Arthur Szyk was born into a Jewish family in Lódz, in the part of Poland which was under Russian rule in the 19th century. He always regarded himself both as a Pole and a Jew. From 1921, he lived and created his works mainly in France and Poland, and in 1937 he moved to the United Kingdom.
