>Aura by Carlos Fuentes
Very short novella that didn't even take an hour to read, but is probably definitely best read in one sitting. With the lights on. I think this is my favorite example of what I guess is called "magical realism" that I've read so far - everything happened so perfectly straight forward and relatively normal-like. But it was damn strange. About halfway through I had the realization of what had been happening in the story and I had to stop reading for a minute and stare at my wall in shock/horror. Many of the images in this come and go quickly, but it ends up creating some kind of creepy subliminal messaging. Anyway, recommended if you like supernatural/creepy stories.

And my soon-to-reads:
>Selected Stories by Robert Walser
>Kornel Esti by Dezso Kosztolanyi
>Too Loud a Solitude by Bohumil Hrabal
