1945 ROBERT FROST 1st/1st Masque of Reason Comedy Play Book of JOB Steeple Bush
“A Masque of Reason” is a comedic play penned in 1945 by the eminent American poet, Robert Frost. Set as an imaginative extension to the book of Job, Frost crafts what he envisions as the 43rd chapter, adding a twist to a book that traditionally stops at 42 chapters. Through this unique lens, Frost justifies and rationalizes the ways of God to man, reminiscent of John Miltons efforts in Paradise Lost.
Celebrated for his mastery over American vernacular, Robert Frost utilized his writings to navigate intricate societal and philosophical quandaries. Garnering extensive accolades throughout his career, including four Pulitzer Prizes for Poetry, Frost remains one of the foremost icons in American literature.
