Characters Description in Death of a Salesman
Willy Loman: Willy can be seen as a stubborn individual who may seem to be assertive and non appreciative to an extent. This was depicted in the first instance of the book where, his wife Linda constantly asked if he was encountered in an accident his response towards her came across as not appreciative of her concern and his response was also influenced by his assertiveness. Willy was also seen as a intrapersonal communicator, since he also spoke to himself, also a reflector, this was seen when he would often have flashbacks about his father.
Linda: Linda seemed to be a very caring and loving individual towards her husband Willy and her children. This was seen in the way in which she asked Willy numerous questions about the trip and if he got into a car accident. She also pleaded with him to speak to his boss about not having to travel so many times in his age, to avoid accidents. This indeed showed her love for him.
Happy: He was seen as the successful child who had a steady job and qualities that would seem pleasing to his father. He would also seem to be more ambitious than his brother Biff since he would always aim to reach higher heights.
Biff: He seemed to be more aggressive than his brother and rather confused about his educational status, since he had skipped many schools.
