A Pulitzer-winning 1949 play written by American playwright Arthur Miller. The play uses flashbacks to present old salesman Willy Loman’s memory during the reality. Willy has dreamed of success his whole life and makes up lies about his and (eldest son) Biff’s success. The more he indulges in the illusion, the harder it is for him to face reality. Biff is the only one who realizes that the whole family lived in the lies and tries to face the truth.
