The book is understandable, but also confusing. The main character suffers from hallucinations from his past. For this reason, the book jumps back and forth from past and present

What an interestingly-told tragedy. I thought this play was good, good enough to scratch the recent itch I've had for plays, but not good enough to highly praise or earn higher than a 3-star rating. Willy is a 60-year-old salesman who has been let go, his usefulness has expired. Adrift, lost, and unsure of what to do next, his mood swings dangerously as tensions with his two sons rise higher. He doesn't realize that his self-sabotaging mindset is, in large part, a factor in his great unhappiness in life.
