NP Chekhov quote just learned

[Mark Kohut]

"Only entropy comes easy."


Which is an oblique lead into this ob I had
the other day.

Young Pynchon was inspired by this concept, in a couple-three
stories and novels....a mature concept of energy running out,
when he was full of energy..................................

And, his latest novel is full of anti-entropic, young man's prose..
as if he wanted to refute the concept in his working life......
