Willy in illusion vs Willy in reality
Текст Раскадровки
- I've been up and down New England honey. Its was a great success. I did 500 in Providence and 700 in Boston
- That's wonderful dear. And, Oh My, that's 200 in commission!
- I really hope it's true this time.
- Well I don't think 200 is quite right. Probably a bit less.
- Linda, I'm not lying to you. Honest. I just forget sometimes. I've never been good with numbers.
- Willy! How much longer are you going to keep this up. Lying to me, lying to the boys. What type of example do you think you are setting for them. I try to ignore it but it's getting ridiculous.
- Linda nest time. I will make more, sell more. I'm still popular up in New England they will welcome me back and we won't have these problems anymore.
- Next time, Linda, I promise to make sure and not forget.
- And its more than just your dishonesty. We need money to pay for things. We have Biff and Happy to provide for and bills to pay and you are not acknowledging that.
- But Willy this happens every time and it's getting harder and harder to ignore it.
- [Linda Sighs]
- This is a scene in the play when Willy is having one of his flashbacks and is remembering a time when he had just come home from one of his business trips. In my interpretation however I showed Linda's internal thoughts as Willy explains to her how much he made while he was away. Clearly his exaggerations of his monetary gain are common to Linda so she must pray that every time he gives her a number he is telling her the truth.
- Willy and Linda begin to work their way into the kitchen when Willy begins to reveal how much he really made on his trip. In the play, Linda comforts him and says that that is good too. In my interpretation of their relationship, Linda must be fed up of him lying to his wife and she just wants the truth. She also is likely concerned for the impression willy's lack of honesty is leaving on the boys.
- Linda continues to try and make Willy realize the gravity of the situation and just as it seems he may be listening he comments about his popularity in New England which from the play we know is not the truth. Linda realizes that her efforts to get through to Willy will never be successful which can be seen in her complacency later in their marriage.
