答案:Willy Lowman is a character in Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman, which is a sad version of American dream. Willy Lowman, the salesman of the title, is as “phony” as Mark Twain’s Colonel Sellers but more hardworking and honest. He is as tragic asF. Scott Fitzgerald’s Great Gatsby but not as successful and “great”. Though living in a rough world where modem civilization is suffocating, Willy never seems to be aware of that and keeps on dreaming of success and living in illusions and lies. He keeps on dreaming about a good future. The dreaminess of Willy is a sure symptom of his insanity. The mind of Willy is falling apart under a pressure too much for him to bear.
