Willy Loman, the protagonist of Arthur Miller's "Death of a Salesman," contemplates suicide primarily due to his overwhelming feelings of failure and inadequacy. He believes that his worth is tied to his success as a salesman and his ability to provide for his family, and he feels he has failed in both areas. Willy sees death as a means to offer his family financial security through insurance money, which he hopes will redeem his life's struggles. Ultimately, his desperation reflects a deep sense of despair and the societal pressures that define success in his world.
