I've always associated this with Death of a Salesman by Arthur Miller, perhaps wrongly.

No sir, 'Ada' does not contain 203000 words but only 174000, not according to my calculations but to my PC (I had to offer myself a digital copy to work on the German commentary).
 
This gives me occasion to ask the List a minuscule question: Would anybody have an idea what author and book the title 'Salzman' refers to, occurring five times (pp. 459, 476, 477, 486)?
