Death of Salesman

First, I want to introduce the main characters in my estensive reading.
Willy: The salesman who was never exceptional at business.
Linda: Willy's wife who loves him dispite all of his difficulties.
Biff: Willy's eldest son for whom he had dreams of greatness.
Happy: Willy's younger son, feels inadequate.

Act One:
Willy was an old salesman. He felt so tired for his work. He thought nothing he can do in his business. Only his wife can understand and mericulous care him. She tried to do best to protect her husband's dinity and hoped to give some confidence for he husband in future life. They had two sons, Biff and Happy. They were their parents' proud, but they lost hope for their parents. In heavy pressure, Willy's consciousness became to unsteady.

Hmmm ... it can be interesting to read the script of a theatre play, no? You can imagine how it would look on the stage with actors. You can even imagine different ways of saying the same lines, with different emotions and intonations -- just like the actors do when they are preparing their roles.

It's a great play, very powerful.

What do you think, classmates? What will happen to Willie in the end?
