Examples

“If the world cannot be rational in my sense⟳, in the sense⟳ of unconditional surrender⟳, I refuse⟳ to grant that it is rational at all. It is pure incoherence, a chaos, a nulliverse, to whose haphazard sway I will not truckle.”

“If rationality be in it at all, it must be in it throughout ; if irrationality be in it anywhere, that also must pervade it throughout. It must be wholly rational or wholly irrational, pure universe or pure multiverse or pure nulliverse ; and reduced to this violent alternative, no one's choice ought long to remain⟳ doubtful.”

“You admit⟳ yourself that I am only a pale wild girl with gipsy hair in a deathless ballad, in a nulliverse, in Rattner's ‘menald world’ where the only principle is random variation.”

“Now, why should an author not create⟳ a “nulliverse” to represent⟳ “oneirologically” the contents of his own⟳ mind⟳?”

“... one of the infinite seas that swim⟳ in a bubble of a phenomenal ocean where there are no longer any stars because the stars have⟳ lost their name⟳: the nulliverse, and wondering if Bustrófedon's sentity was expanding multiversally, ...”

“And Huw is abruptly ejected from whatever pocket nulliverse the Prophet’s fifth column have⟳ installed in the lobby of the virtual Tripoli Mariott, to a destination even more profoundly alienating than the cloud itself.”
