Death In Willy Loman's Death

Death is a very vague character he is blunt and goes straight to the point. Death starts off with a sort of mocking or cynical manner, with a dark sense of humor, but as the novel goes on and World War II gets bigger and faster, Death shows weariness and remorse about having to collect so many souls. He’s extremely truthful and tells you how it is. A small fact he shares at the very beginning of the book is “you are going to die”. He explains that he is attempting to be cheerful about this whole topic, but most people find themselves hindered in believing him. He explains he can definitely be cheerful, amiable, agreeable, affable. Although he can be all these things he can't be nice, that's just not him.
He sees things in colors, but food colors, such as lettuce, grapes, chocolate. Death enjoys noticing colors,
particularly in the sky, and he is mystified by the contradictory nature of humans—both beautiful and ugly.
As World War II continues and he must collect so many souls, he grows weary with his work. He likes the sky chocolate, dark dark chocolate when he takes his souls. He enjoys every color he sees, billions of flavors none the same. He says it takes the edge off of the stress. Death is tired of his job and wants a vacation basically , but can’t really take one because there isn't anyone to take his spot. Death talks about his job, removing souls and carrying them away which is weird seeing that he is death personified. Later on in the book it basically states that death has feeling also “he has a heart”. There has been 3 times that death has seen the book thief. The first time he saw her was on a train where he had come to collect
the soul of a small boy. The book thief watched him take the boy with tears running down her face. The next time Death saw the book thief was few years later, when a pilot crashed his plane. Death came for the pilot’s soul and watched as a boy took a teddy bear from a toolbox and gave it to the pilot. The third time he saw the book thief, a German town had been bombed. She was sitting on a pile of rock after the germans bombed them. She dropped the book and Death picke it up and looked at the name. The girl's name was Liesel. Liesel and her brother are on a train with their mom on their way to their foster parents house. For some unknown reason her brother dies on the train and they had to get off to bury him.
When Rudy dies the way that death explains it, almost as he was in Liesel's position
“She leaned down and looked at his lifeless face and Liesel kissed her best friend, Rudy Steiner, soft and true on his lips. He tasted dusty and sweet. He tasted like regret in the shadows of trees and in the glow of the anarchist's suit collection. She kissed him long and soft, and when she pulled herself away, she touched his mouth with her fingers...She did not say goodbye. She was incapable, and after a few more minutes at his side, she was able to tear herself from the ground. It amazes me what humans can do, even when streams are flowing down their faces and they go on”
Death is shown in a manner that is less distant and threatening. Because Death narrates and explains the reasons behind each character's death, as well as explains how he feels that he must take the life of each character, death is given a sense of care rather than fear. At one point, Death even states "even death has a heart," which shows that there is a care in the idea of death and dying. I think death changes a lot throughout the book. In my opinion death does get feelings and a heart later on in the book where as in the beginning he seemed pretty blunt and not nice.
