Description

This play by Arthur Miller was first performed in 1949 and has been popular ever since. The majority of the play takes place in Willy Loman's (the main character) house and yard, although there are some scenes in the places he travels to. Willy is a failing traveling salesman who has a passionate dream for success and achieving the classic "American dream." Struggling to support his wife and two boys, Willy is somewhat of an unrealistic dreamer. There's a bit of humor in the play, but overall, it's a drama that ends rather tragically. There are about five main characters and thirteen characters in all. The book presents the play in standard play format and is 140 pgs, pb. ~ Rachel

Publisher's Description of Death of a Salesman

Ever since it was first performed in 1949, Death of a Salesman has been recognized as a milestone of the American theater. In the person of Willy Loman, the aging, failing salesman who makes his living riding on a smile and a shoeshine, Arthur Miller redefined the tragic hero as a man whose dreams are at once insupportably vast and dangerously insubstantial. He has given us a figure whose name has become a symbol for a kind of majestic grandiosity—and a play that compresses epic extremes of humor and anguish, promise and loss, between the four walls of an American living room.
