The tone the playwright convey through Bobo's words "Man, willy is gone" in the excerpt from 'A Raisin in the sun' by Lorraine Hansberry is that of Shock and disbelief because Willy has stolen his and Walter's money.

Explanation:

Lorraine Hansberry convey the tone of Shock and disbelief through Bobo's words. Walter and Bobo were convinced by Willy to form a partnership and makean investment in the Liquor store plan because of their joblessness. Therefore Willy convinced them that the liquor store is the best idea for them and this made them invest their life savings.

But, unfortunately Willy disappears with their money and this made them completely broke and dejected. Bobo then realized that Willy will not show up and that all their money is gone hence his shock and disbelief.
