Orton, Linda McKeown, Karen Dalrymple and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "The Transformation of Job" by Frederick Vining Fisher is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in a mining town named Gold City, nestled in the high Sierras, focusing on the coming-of-age journey of a young boy named Job, as he navigates the complexities of life, loss, and love in a rugged environment shaped by past glory and current struggles. At the start of the book, we meet Job Teale, a pale and timid twelve-year-old who arrives in Gold City in search of his father, Arthur Teale. Having lost his mother during their arduous journey, Job's appearance evokes curiosity and concern among the rough men of the town, who quickly recall his father's troubled past. After being taken in by Andrew Malden, a reclusive yet wealthy local, Job begins to adapt to his new life, but he is tormented by the memory of his mother and the hardships they faced. As the narrative progresses, we witness Job's transformation influenced by his surroundings, the relationships he forms, and the conflicts he faces, setting the stage for his development and the choices he will make.
