Could you recommend a book of "tales"? An example would be Canterbury Tales or Tales by Lovecraft.

The Tales of Hoffmann. I only mention this because he's one of the better writers that gets zero love from Lit. Read the Golden Pot, or the Sandman-- simply fantastic. You got that? E.T.A. Hoffmann..

Not OP but what is Fina?

>> No.9205047

When you ask that, do you mean just any collection of short stories (like Lovecraft's Tales), or a group of stories that is arranged purposefully (like the Canterbury Tales)?

Either one. But I'm looking for genre fiction (fantasy, SciFi, weird, horror), but good ones like Borges's Aleph and Other Stories or Arabian Nights.

I'm looking for any collection of tales in genres (gothic, fantasy, SciFi, weird, horror) but good fiction, like Aleph and Other Stories or Arabian Nights. Carver's realist short stories is an example something I'm not looking for.
