The last section (139-97) is set in a future that has seen a revolt of old people demanding respect after a spate of Old People\&rsquo;s Suicides taking place outside the official voluntary euthanasia system. This is a very small part of the novel, with most of the third section reflections on death and religion through the eyes of her son, who is in conversation with the General Purpose Computer, then the supposedly more advanced, The Absolute Truth computer.<o:p></o:p></p>},
