Death Of A Salesman, Certain Private Conversations In Two Acts And A Requiem

Story is incredible, the book itself is very thin and lightweight!

I often browse for books in the stores, and when it comes to purchasing, i prefer Amazon. I like my books in perfect condition. Amazon did not disappoint. The book is high quality.I do not rate the stories themselves, that is a personal...

Page 65 was folded during production. The book is still readable. I'll trim the page because my son needs to read it for a college class so no time to exchange. Otherwise everything is ok.

Nice price for students,

Two months ago I secured two tickets for my wife and me to attend the short revival of Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman. It has been many years since I had seen this play on the movie screen and I wanted to get the feel for the dialogue and the staging of the play. Hence I bought this script. The current revival currently being played at the Ethel Barrymore Theater is directed by Mike Nichols and starring Philip Seymour Hoffman, Linda Emond and Andrew Garfield. The story in and of itself is a classic tragedy which was written for the late 1940's after WWII, but in a sense could be written in any time period. The story represents Willy Loman's hopes and dreams as he wishes the world to be. The tragedy is that what Willy is striving for and trying to become turns into a shattered dream. Life as he knows it does not bear the fruit he thought it would bear. His struggles represent what many people in life deal with and try to secure the elusive American Dream. How the script reads and says is magnificent in its portrayal of a man struggling to achieve his goals. This play is magnificent in its portrayal of a man struggling to achieve his goals.The story and the writing of Miller are indeed magnificent. However in seeing this production of the play done so well in its current revival, I can't envision this play being done any better than the current production. The current revival takes the writing of the script and is acted out by a superb cast earning this classic play the absolute pantheon of Broadway productions.Many reviews have said that what Miller brought forth in mid-20th century America of a struggling middle class man trying to fulfill the American Dream is still relevant in today's economy and that things really haven't changed. Yes Willie Loman was part of the 99% and yes even back in 1949 there still was that 1% who seemingly controlled the American Dream. I'm glad I read the script before attending this classic performance. As for the performance itself. It will remain an unforgettable afternoon which was acted superbly and with much real emotion. Truly unforgettable.

Book was in great shape

I had to get this for a class and to tell the truth it was not that great of a book. The story was kind of bland and confusing, too many (underlying meanings according to me teacher.) sure the name lowman is suppose to mean something, or it could just be there name is all. Any who it is not that bad of a book, you should give it a shot but don;t get your hopes up.

My son is reading this in high school, so I bought myself a copy to read along. It arrived quickly and in perfect condition. I flew through this book and could relate a lot to Willy Loman's disordered thinking. I had chills at the end and could see every scene in my mind. It made me interested in reading more of Arthur Miller's work.

Este clásico de la literatura de la lengua Inglésa deja sin palabras al leedor. La complejidad de los personajes unida al excelente manejo del idioma por parte del autor, te lleva a un viaje emocionante en donde la angustia, el desespero y la esperanza se presentan en cada párrafo para concluir con un final que te deja sin aliento. En definitiva, un clásico de la cultura norteamericana que vale la pena leer.

Book came in great condition

Buena experiencia

Super livre en Anglais, j'ai adorer le lire malgré que j'ai un niveau A2 en anglais! Je l'ai lu à l'âge de 16ans et je le trouve simple à lire, parfois j'ai rencontrée des mots assez compliqué mais reste facile à comprendre!
