He sends his sons to get money for him and everything but doesnt want to face the end of his career. Willy Loman just will not accept it. He is constantly arguing with his older son who never settles down to find a job and when he finds a good job he is alwys stealing his way from keeping the job. Willy has a lot of stress built up. Hes tired of his sons picking up any girl they want . He had his perfect son in hischool but his actions built them apart. The American Dream is a Beutiful thing but not all can have it. And this storys message is just that. so read this classic and find out about it. This is a well written play and it has a great story line.
