Happy Loman

     From all the characters in the book, The Death of a Salesman, I can identify myself the most with Happy Loman. Happy Loman is the optimistic face of the Loman family. No matter what happens, he can always relate something good to it. For example, when his father was depressed, and the whole family was mad at each other, Happy was there to help and try to make things better. That sounds like something I would do.
     I see the confidence that Happy has, and relate it to my own. No matter what we do, we try to succeed. I can also relate how Happy has an older sibling to live up to, the way I do. We are both the younger sibling in the family, but that does not stop us from trying our best to get far in life. Lastly, we both try to satisfy everyone around us, but get so lost doing so, we forget about ourselves. I think Happy and I share that same characteristic. There are many characteristics that relate Happy Loman to myself.

Death of a Salesman SOAPST

     The Death of a Salesman is a play written by Arthur Miller. The speaker of the book, or play, is Arthur Miller. The occasion is in the Loman house, in Brooklyn, New York, in the 1940s. This was around seventy years ago, and so much has changed between then and now. The audience is anyone who reads the book. Because the book is actually a play, and has also been turned into a movie, the audience can also be anyone who watches the play, or the movie.
     The book was a very interesting book to read. It also had a lot of suspenseful parts. Although it was very short, it was still able to pack so much information into the story line. I would love to see the play, if I ever get the chance. I really enjoyed reading the book.
