The story was really nice because it inspired me. But I tried to ask myself if why is Love a fallacy. What is the connection of the thoughts of fallacy to Love? That is why I'm very excited when I first saw the short story and I was very glad to read it. But after of which I have read, I have many questions to ask.
At the first place, why would Petey Bellows choose the raccoon coat instead of choosing Poly Espy. He might have known at the first lace that Poly likes Big Men and Petey only knew that Big Men in the university wear raccoon coats. I don't agree that Polly Espy is not a smart girl because she already knew about fallacise in a short period of time. She is just pretending. If she really is a dumb girl, she must not be studying in that school. Only that, she likes people who are treated as Big Men than a nerd boy.
I was very well informed by the different fallacies. Those made me very curious on studying Law. The man/narrator was indeed an intelligent one. He was just eighteen but he already knew about these things. Things to be used in reasoning out during court trials. Petey Bellows, for me however, really loves Polly. He wants a raccoon coat because he wants to be with Polly. I think, he already knows about Polly's interests- Big Men in the university so he decided to choose the raccoon coat instead of Polly at the first place because he already knew that time. Poor Man! He didn't know that Petey is wise but Petey did not informed the man.
Let us go to the other point. Is love really a fallacy. Then, which of those fallacies is Love? Why? Why? Why? And What? Maybe, it is the last fallacy which is Poisoning the Well. People tend to do everything for love. They would even love to poison a well in order to attain the one he loves. Maybe the author was trying to inform us the disadvantages and advantages of these fallacies.
The story was very funny but I realized that it was funny when I ended up the story with a cool question. Why would Polly Espy choose Petey Bellows who is a faddist rather than the man/narattor who is very intelligent, keen and better than Petey. Maybe also because of Love. Maybe, Polly realized that he loves Petey because of who he is. Not like the man who only thinks of himself rather than considering the feeling of his friend.
This would really inspire you especially if you are heartbroken. I recommend this story to you because it is really fascinating. From the title, to the body and to your reactions. I hope you will find time on reading this and hope that you will be inspired by the thoughts given by the story itself. What more if you end up the story by wondering. Good Day!
