A Thing for Nothingness by Pablo Saborío

New from EIF! A Thing for Nothingness is a poetry collection by Costa Rican-Danish poet Pablo Saborío.

About the Book

Nothingness is often imagined as an absence. A Thing for Nothingness portrays it as a quiet gravity, drawing us toward what cannot be possessed or named. Shaped by paradox and sensuous imagery, these poems approach the threshold where silence begins to blossom.

In her foreword, editor Ingrid Wilson praises the elegance and beauty of the collection’s language, while poet and composer Eliot Cardinaux observes how its poems render meaning “precarious” beneath the expanding mystery of nothingness.

Both intimate and expansive, A Thing for Nothingness moves between the personal and the metaphysical, exploring how language shapes our experience of reality. It is a collection for readers drawn to contemporary poetry concerned with language, meaning, and existence.
