Futility, or the Wreck of the Titan

Book • 2012
Morgan Robertson's "Futility" is a novella that eerily foreshadowed the Titanic disaster.

The story details the sinking of a fictional ocean liner, the Titan, which bears striking similarities to the Titanic in size, luxury, and fate.

The Titan, deemed unsinkable, collides with an iceberg and sinks, mirroring the actual events of the Titanic tragedy.

The novella explores themes of hubris, technological overconfidence, and the unpredictable nature of fate.

Its uncanny accuracy has made it a fascinating piece of literary history.
