The Library of Babel by Jorge Luis Borges. In it, the narrator describes a library that contains every possible book, including books with every possible combination of letters.

The narrator then describes an experience in which he comes across a book that describes his own life and thoughts—and realizes that the same thing happens to everyone who reads it
