Through this trying story the author tries to convey to you the three themes of, the injustices of corporations on their employees, fantasy vs. reality, and Parent/Children relationships. The injustices of large corporations on their employees is clearly noted in this play. In the beginning of the second act, Willy has decided to visit with his boss Howard to see if he can work in an office in New York instead of being a traveling salesman. Howard is the son of one of Willy’s old salesman buddy who he has a detailed past with, yet that doesn’t seem to matter at all to Howard. Willy starts in and pretty much bluntly asks Howard if he could work in an office in New York for about sixty-five dollars an hour.
