Centaur in brass is faulkner's best. Tel me you don't laugh your fucking ass off and learn about race relations in the process.

Other good short stories are assumption by samuek beckett, the silverberry thief by kawabata, night-sea journey by john barth, and houses / the angel of prisonsbt william t vollmann.

Personally, my favorite Chekhov stories...
>”Ward No. 6”
>”The Lady with the Little Dog”
>”In the Ravine”
>”The Kiss”
>”The Grasshopper”
>”The Darling”
>”The Bet”
>”Rothschild’s Fiddle”

I have read a lot of Chekhov but not all, so there are probably some really good stories missing from my list, nonetheless these are my favorites
