Two interconnected manuscripts exploring the boundary between fictional archives and the historical record — and what survives within it.
This repository presents two interconnected manuscripts published in the public domain.
Read together, they explore the unstable boundary between:
- fictional archives and recorded history
- historical silence and narrative invention
- documentation, authority, and belief
The documents are complete as presented. No further context is required.
Operation Seamless: A Recovered Archive
A collection of purported late-Victorian documents describing a violent incident in 1888 and the subsequent erasure of its participants from the historical record.
Repairing the Gaps: Notes on Building a Fictional Archive
A reflective companion text examining the construction of Operation Seamless as a fictional archive — its research, structure, ethical constraints, and deliberate ambiguities.
The documents may be read independently.
However, the intended sequence is:
- Operation Seamless: A Recovered Archive
- Repairing the Gaps: Notes on Building a Fictional Archive
This work is complete.
No revisions, expansions, or clarifications are planned.
This repository is released into the public domain.
