This is not the best written story, but it has influenced so many people. I will not go into that (but I'll let you read my paper about it if you like!) but I will say... it's amazing this piece was so influential.
Wilson (not his real name) is convinced that there is an exact copy of himself that has been following him around. Wilson number 2 shows up at his boarding school unexpectedly, and it turns out they have the same features and even the same birthday. When I first read that, I knew that Wilson number 1 was a little crazy.
By the end, Wilson number 2 shows up and Wilson number 1 stabs him. But Wilson number 2 isn't really there, he has stabbed himself and doesn't realize that it was all in his head.
Fight Club, anyone?
