NP really, but maybe. But if I am right

[Mark Kohut]

about Calvin Blacknesse as essentially Pynchon in BEEN DOWN SO LONG there is this:
he is a painter, he can draw..."Blacknesse sketching him [Gnossos] roughly with a broad-
nibbed peen, delineating features, unable to prevent the emergence of satyrs and nympths
from the tangle of hair. His own brow curled and wrinkled, dark eyes searching, hinting 
vaguely, as always, at the uncertain, the nearly defined."......p.76
 
One nice simple way to describe a lifelong thrust of TRP's art, yes? 
 
on the next page comes this exchange: 
CB: "Ah, you'll forgive an intuition, then?"
GP: "Swhat I'm here for man, I'm uptight"
CB: "The immortality worm has been chewing."
GP: "What if it has?"
CB: "Try chewing back."
 
Get on with the work.
