In "Contents of the Dead Man's Pocket" by Jack Finney, an example of pathetic fallacy occurs when the weather reflects the protagonist's emotional state. As Tom Benecke grapples with anxiety and desperation while trying to retrieve his important paper from the ledge, the oppressive heat of the apartment and the storm brewing outside mirror his internal turmoil. This connection between the environment and Tom's feelings enhances the tension and urgency of the narrative.
