Willy And Biff Willy Loman
1,063 wordsIn the play Death of a Salesman by Arthur Miller, Willy is both sympathized with and looked down upon throughout the story.

The play begins with Willy as the antagonist, fighting with his wife Linda and a generally mean person. He insults his sons and scolds L...

Father Was Cheating Cheating On His Mother Play
428 wordsI found the play Death of a Salesman to be quite interesting. Each character had their own unique personality. Ms. Loman played the perfect wife.
