The book is a very finely written novel that uses many plausable literary techniques. Thomas Mann uses Aschenbach to portray the place of an artist in our modern society and the amount of narcissism involved that can become fatal. A great novel indeed

Jeff does a great job describing Uniface Six, even to the layperson. Indeed even a seasoned Uniface Professional such as myself learned much about the product.

Yet, the book is now hopelessly out of date for Uniface Seven and beyond. Still, if you are interested in the history of Uniface functionality, this is worth a read.

In its time, this book was five stars.
