“Death of Salesman”, by Arthur Miller

I started this one night on the island, and I’m embarrassed to admit, didn’t finish it.  I thought I had another three weeks with it, but I’m not able to renew it again, so will have to go back to it.

I’m sure we read this in high school English.  I didn’t appreciate it, of course, and thought it was time to revisit.  I remembered Willy Loman’s character as being broken and sad, but not as unhinged as he read to me this time.  I didn’t enjoy reading plays back then, but I certainly grew to enjoy them in my university years, so I got a lot more out of the stage directions on this reading.

Need to finish.
