Arthur Miller's "Death of a Salesman" begins with a failed salesman returning home from a sales trip. He's discouraged with his efforts as well as those of his older son, Biff. His son is unhappy because he has always failed to live up to his father's expectations. Willy loses his job and depressed over not being able to support his family, he kills himself so his son, Biff, can use the insurance money to start a business. No one comes to Willy's funeral, and his three survivors contemplate the direction their lives will take now that he's gone.
