Reality, And Other Stories by John Lanchester

A collection of contemporary ghost stories in which the everyday technologies and commercial forces of modern life—smart devices, social media platforms, surveillance, and the gig economy—become conduits for unease and haunting. Mixing dark humor with slow-burn chills, the tales follow ordinary people whose routines are derailed by glitches, scams, and uncanny coincidences, exposing the anxieties of consumer culture and blurring the line between the virtual and the real.
