So, I just read "Short stories for a year". It was my first encounter with Pirandello's work. Where should I go next?

Also, Italian literature recommendation thread

I suggest you try whatever from Calvino, then if you find his works appeal to your tastes, give Eco a chance.

As for Pirandello, try "il fu mattia pascal" or " uno, nessuno e centomila", they're probably his best works.

If you're looking for something less modern, I'd say Dante or Machiavelli. Once you've read even bits of them, you'll know where you want to go
