If you can get hold of a copy, don't overlook Robert Gordis' "Koheleth:
The Man and His World. Fantastic book. There is a 3rd edition published
by Schocken. Inexpensive, and any good theological library will probably
have a copy.

Possibly as late as dinner time ;-)

Clearly, you'll never be a successful po-mo deconstructionist. By the
way, Gordis has a whole chapter interacting with the "Koheleth as
Existentialist" theory.
