The book "Death of a Salesman" by Arthur Miller is about a very disturbed and troubled man. This man, Willy, is the husband of Linda and the father of two sons, Biff and Happy. In the book Willy is a stressed out salesman that is starting to go crazy. At the end of the book, Willy will kill himself for three main reasons.
