Nothing
1942
Published in 1942, 'Nothing' by Donald A. Wollheim is a science fiction short story that delves into themes of existence and reality. Set in a bombed building, it follows a young man and an old professor who become trapped in a collapsed cellar. As they await rescue, the professor proposes a radical idea based on physics: by visualizing themselves and their surroundings as 'nothing,' they might escape. The story raises profound questions about the nature of matter and human understanding, ultimately leading to a stark realization of their dire situation.
