Take the following as truth: The assistant shoemaker is another of Malamud's weirdly insistent, lonely souls--impelled, who knows why, to devote himself to a hopeless love; still wincing from the horrors of Europe, which he has not entirely escaped; inarticulate, yet bursting with passion, if only his boss, the master shoemaker, will deign to listen.
Then the following statement: "The assistant shoemaker wants the master shoemaker to listen to them." is true, false, or inconclusive?
Answer: True
