Death of a Salesman Summary: Willy Lowman returns to his home in Brooklyn exhausted from a faded sales trip. His wife Linda tries to persuade him to ask his boss for a job in New York, so that he won’t have to travel. The couple has two sons Biff and Happy. Biff, who is the older one, is still not settled, which upsets his father. Both boys are unsatisfied with their lives and fantasize about buying a ranch in the west. Willy becomes immersed in a daydream, back in time. He explains to Biff, a high-school football star, that one day he’ll have his own business, bigger than that of his neighbour Charlie, so that he’ll never have to leave home anymore. In the conversation he points out that Charlie and his son Bernard are not as well –liked as he and his own sons. Linda enters and Willy tells her about a successful sales trip but then he has to admit that it was only meagrely successful. He complains about all the payments they have and that he won’t be able to make them all any longer. He says that people don’t like him and that he’s not good at his job.
