Make sure you don’t read the title of this play otherwise you’ll be spoiled!Okay. I don’t know how to start this. I’m pretty sure in it’s time, Death of a Salesman was an amazing play. But for now, I don’t really like anything or anyone except for Biff Loman. Willy Loman is just like any other man w...

What is the American Dream? Most people still think of it as financial stability and/or wealth. A house in the suburbs with a white picket fence. A husband or wife. Two kids. A dog. Grilling on lazy Sunday afternoons and bowling with the league after getting off work at five. This is the stereotypic...

Like most classic works, this is something everyone should read once. It's a little bit all over the place for my tastes, but heartbreaking and thought provoking as well. I feel as though seeing it performed would probably do it more justice than reading it did, but I definitely recommend taking it ...

When I was in high school, we were told the great American playwrights were Eugene O'Neil, Tennessee Williams and Arthur Miller, and Death of a Salesman Miller's greatest play. Well, I'd give my teacher two out of that three. I've always found Miller both preachy and underwhelming. All His Sons, the...

It can be a bit of a come down when you have just read a couple of fun novels, that being The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemmingway, and a Secret Seven book, to suddenly jump over to a book that is as dark and bleak as this, however the reason that I did this was to push up the number of commentaries ...

Oh, how awful. To dream so big, it's just...man, the general mood of this story kills (literally). Most people have probably walked out after the play feeling terrible and cheated. Damn, now I want to see it and feel that way. This isn't a horrible book. In fact, it's a realistic eye-opening view at...

"I don't say he's a great man. Willie Loman never made a lot of money. His name was never in the paper. He's not the finest character that ever lived. But he's a human being, and a terrible thing is happening to him. So attention must be paid. He's not to be allowed to fall in his grave like an old ...
