Review: Death of a Salesman
Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman refutes the great American dream. ... Willy Loman, a salesman for 34 years, is suddenly fired for his second-rate work. ...
Willy Loman is a traveling salesman—a distinctively American profession. ... He lives in the capitalist society of America and Willy fulfills an instrumentally capitalist role—the salesman. ... He is a salesman, who can only gain success by being aggressive and competitive, not by being a nice guy. ...
Thus Willy ends his life, believing that all that is needed to save his family is the $20,000 that they will receive after his death.
