Oxford, United Kingdom, September 18, 2025 –(PR.com)– About “The Book That Read Me”:

The Book That Read Me by Anthony Maccini is a mind-bending fusion of psychological thriller, surreal metafiction, and philosophical sci-fi. Six extraordinary stories push reality to breaking point, exploring fractured identity, the illusion of free will, and the fragile boundary between the real and the imagined.

In Zigzag, a man’s life is rewritten by a sinister book—and a shadowy double who wants to erase him.

The Doubles plunges into a claustrophobic city where everyone hides behind coats and hats, and individuality dissolves in the crowd.

In The Lottery Ticket, a destitute soul wins £200 million, revealing how society values wealth above humanity.

Echoes follows a grieving bureaucrat haunted by ghostly visions of himself, as love and escape clash with the possibility of fate.

The Interview delivers a ferocious attack on Britain’s welfare system, exposing how institutions dehumanise and criminalise the vulnerable.

And in The Zoo, time bends cruelly, trapping strangers across centuries in a cosmic experiment run by higher powers.

With shades of Kafka, Orwell, and Philip K. Dick, Maccini blends dystopia, magical realism, and existential dread into a relentless exploration of what it means to be human in an indifferent universe. Each tale is a mirror—sometimes cracked, sometimes clear.

Dazzling, disturbing, and darkly thought provoking, The Book That Read Me will challenge the reader to think about reality—if reality is even real at all.
