Within Ways of Reading, by Anthony Petrosky, there is an excerpt called the "Loss of the Creature", by Walker Percy. In Percy 's excerpt he writes about many different stories and examples that are all about different things. He shows that everyone 's 'Value P ' is different because everyone sees things different. By saying this Percy is trying to say that we, the readers, should not set expectations on an experience that we will have. He also talks of planners and consumers and how one will worry about the planning of the experiences and the other will not worry and just experience what they experience. Percy also uses many terms within his short excerpt. My favorite term that Percy used was the word 'Consumer '. He uses the term Consumer in many if not all of the examples that he talks about and uses in his excerpt. Traditionally a Consumer is thought to be a person who purchases goods and/or services for their personal use. Although, in Percy 's excerpt, he describes/defines the consumer as the person who experiences what the expert and planner want them to see. He also says that because the consumer is experiencing what the expert and planner want them to, it means that they are being cheated or are missing out because they are being told what to see and experience. This causes the consumer to see and experience things through the lenses of the expert and planner. This takes away the ability of letting the consumer experience things how they would like or want.
