Ellen Ullman is a “rarity, a computer programmer with a poet’s feeling for language” (Laura Miller, “Salon”). “The Bug” breaks new ground in literary fiction, offering us a deep look into the internal lives of people in the technical world. Set in a start-up company in 1984, this highly acclaimed first novel explores what happens when a baffling software flaw–a bug so teasing it is named “the Jester”–threatens the survival of the humans beings who created it.
