Arthur Millers most famous play, Death of a Salesman, has become a key text in Western literature. Willy, a travelling salesman based in New York, relentlessly chases material success. As the disappointing nature of his reality crowds in upon him, Willy and his family suffer the tragic cost of his delusions of greatness. A domestic tragedy, a cynical indictment of materialism and the American Dream, and a profoundly moving story of one man's struggle to maintain his dignity in the face of continual adversity, Millers play is essential listening.
