Product Description
Since it was first performed in 1949, this Pulitzer Prize-winning drama about the tragic shortcomings of an American dreamer has been recognized as a milestone of the theater. Death of a Salesman is a powerful American classic by Arthur Miller that explores the tragic story of Willy Loman, a man whose pursuit of the American Dream leads to his emotional and financial downfall.
Willy Loman, the protagonist of Death of a Salesman, has spent his life following the American way, living out his belief in salesmanship as a way to reinvent himself. But somehow the riches and respect he covets have eluded him. At age 63, he searches for the moment his life takes a wrong turn, the moment of betrayal that undermined his relationship with his wife and destroyed his relationship with Biff, the son in whom he invested his faith. Willy lives in a fragile world of elaborate excuses and daydreams, conflating past and present in a desperate attempt to make sense of himself and of a world that once promised so much.
This edition of Death of a Salesman features an introduction by Christopher W. E. Bigsby.
