    0:40 stage directoon explain how the play handled time.
    Present - When the action is in the present the actors observe the wall divisions of the set entering the house through the door
    Flashbacks - these spacial boundaries are broken.
    Stage direction also describes a flute playing in the background

    1:29 60 year old willy's disorientation
    2:19 american dream of financial success and social recognition

    was Willy feeling guilty over his affair with the woman and what the pair socks have to do with his feelings?

    • @alishakhan8926

      Yes he does feel guilty. The reason he shouts at Linda when he sees her mending her stockings. Another reason why he remembers and sees his mistress in his flashbacks is that his guilt over betraying Linda and also the fact that his son Biff got to know about his infidel ways. Willy's affair was one of the reasons why a strain was put on the father son relationship. He repents about his deception.
