Today I started to read "Death of a Salesman" by Arthur Miller. The play begins with Willy Loman returning from a trip. His wife, Linda, comes to talk to him, and she asks him if he got into an accident, since he once drove into a river. He didn't, but he said he kept getting into a trance and almost hit a boy. Linda suggests that Willy asks his boss for a job that doesn't require him to leave the city, because his sons Biff and Happy are coming to town.
