    Published during the economic boom in America, post-World War II, this classic exposes the illusory nature of the ‘American dream’: Consumerism, the need to maintain appearances, and the need to ‘make it big’—all compulsions that drive the Lomans. The title implies a double death—the literal death of Willy Loman, the traveling salesman, and the metaphoric one of Willy’s dreams for his son, biff—dramatized in the climactic fight between the two.
