From the Paper:

"Arthur Miller's play "A View From the Bridge" is a tragedy revolving around the failed relationships of the Carbone family. Central to the play is the relationship between Eddie and his niece Catherine. Eddie is in love with Catherine, and at first will not admit his feelings. "It's tough to love a doll that's not your own" (Miller 32). However, by the end of the play he confronts his feelings, and pays the ultimate price for them. His wife understands his feelings, and ridicules him. "You want somethin' else, Eddie, and you can never have her!" (Miller 83). In the end, Eddie alienates his family, and dies at the hand of one of them. Miller's play is the ultimate look at bad relationships, and how they can tear a family apart."
