Easily one of my favorite Miller plays, I've done the one scene Eddie has with Alfieri about four times in different scene study classes.

"The Forgiveness of Beatrice Carbone" sonnet by Andrew Barker. Click this to see a reading. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hrCUfNaqntTaYWg.html Modern Shakespearean Sonnet 45. The Forgiveness of Beatrice Carbone, by Andrew Barker From Arthur Miller’s "A View from the Bridge". Oh Eddie, truth was not as bad as blood! You think I didn’t know the way you felt? I couldn’t make you see and never could, So try to take the blame upon myself; Your flaw was to be wrong in all you saw, And thought and did, in every line you spoke. Not even tragic, traitor to our laws; And murdered in a fight that you provoked. You forged yourself the evil uncle role; Into a fistfight, introduced a knife, Betrayed us all, unable to control Your need to keep your niece within your life. And hate you though I should, there at your death; That single letter of your final breath! Andrew Barker Analysis. The “single letter” in the last line is Beatrice’s dying husband’s pet name for her, “B.” Eddie’s last word, which is all that redeems him in any way for me. I have almost no sympathy for Eddie Carbone in this play. All the problems of the piece are generated by the middle aged Eddie himself and his pathetic inability to acknowledge his attraction to his non-blood related niece. The attraction is embarrassing, sure, but as Beatrice points out, not as bad as the inevitable bloodshed that will follow if he doesn’t acknowledge it. "Truth is not as bad as blood, Eddie," is the central line of the play for any students struggling with it. It's worth pointing out that, as with 'Death of a Salesman,' Arthur Miller himself certainly seems to have far more sympathy for his main character than I think any modern audience would. Andrew Barker.
