Synopsis

It was never alive. But it lived more lives than most of us ever will.

Told through the quiet lens of a single wooden chair—assembled in a factory, sold, passed down, and eventually reclaimed—Chair No. 27 is a haunting, lyrical exploration of what it means to be present for the lives of others without ever truly being seen.

From newlyweds and revolutionaries to poets, widowers, and children with sticky hands and wide eyes, Chair No. 27 witnesses it all. It becomes a place of rest, a seat of power, a silent therapist, a makeshift altar, a forgotten relic.

It does not speak. It does not move. But it remembers.

Spanning decades and generations, this literary novella from C.M. Wayers—a master of intimate, object-driven storytelling—invites readers to reflect on the ways we leave traces of ourselves in the spaces and things we touch.

If you’ve ever run your hand along a scratched tabletop, curled into an old porch chair, or found comfort in something that simply stayed… this is your story, too.
