About this book

The blood of Willy Lohman flows in all of us. The story of the salesman who wanted more for his sons than he knew how to get, who harmed them through his well-meaning dreams but atoned with his life, is at least in part the story of all of us. That is why it is one of the most overwhelming successes of the modern American theatre. --back cover Also contained in: - Arthur Miller's Collected Plays - Bedford Introduction to Literature: Reading, Thinking, Writing: 6th edition - Collected Plays 1944-1961 - Contemporary Drama: Eleven Plays - Literature: The Human Experience: Reading and Writing - Literature: Structure, sound, and sense: Fourth Edition - New Voices in the American Theatre - Penguin Arthur Miller - Portable Arthur Miller - Representative Modern Plays, American
