Posterity You Will Never Know: Fragments of a Life That Will Leave No Witness


Overview

Posterity You Will Never Know is a contemporary literary novel about invisibility, memory, and the quiet terror of living a life that leaves no trace. Elliot Mora is a withdrawn municipal archivist in a fading coastal city where forgotten neighborhoods, abandoned piers, and neglected records mirror his own sense of erasure. One day, Elliot realizes that his existence appears only in payroll systems, utility bills, and administrative forms. Nothing meaningful about his life will survive him. There will be no witnesses. Driven by a growing obsession, Elliot begins secretly documenting his own life-recording mundane moments, collecting objects, and archiving fragments of himself as if he were already dead. As he does, he uncovers unsettling connections between the city's forgotten residents and a vanished man whose absence feels disturbingly familiar. Through encounters with a documentary photographer, strained conversations with his memory-fading mother, and the silent weight of bureaucratic archives, Elliot confronts the uncomfortable truth that being seen is not the same as being remembered. Memory proves unstable, legacy uncontrollable, and permanence an illusion. This novel is not about fame, achievement, or recognition. It is about what remains when no one is watching-and whether meaning can exist without witnesses. Quiet, atmospheric, and deeply introspective, Posterity You Will Never Know explores the fragile boundaries between existence and oblivion in the modern world.
