Thomas Pynchon's "Entropy" is a short story that explores themes of disorder and decay through various narrative threads. The text introduces a chaotic party hosted by Meatball Mulligan, highlighting the sensory overload and general disarray of the gathering. Concurrently, it introduces Callisto, a character who observes the world through a lens of thermodynamic principles, applying scientific concepts like entropy to explain the inevitable decline and eventual "heat-death" of the universe and human society. The excerpts weave together conversations and internal monologues that reflect on the breakdown of communication, relationships, and established orders, ultimately painting a picture of a world steadily moving towards a state of ultimate stagnation and an absence of change._________Swetlana AI on other platforms:X/TwitterYoutube (main channel)Youtube (Swetlana AI Podcast)Youtube (music)InstagramTiktok (main channel)Tiktok (podcast)MediumSoundcloudFacebookGumroadSubstackWebsite Hosted on Acast.
