Goodreads Best Short Story Collections - Page 3

"Single-author short story collections." (Goodreads blurb). However, unless I'm greatly mistaken, several of these works are collections by multiple authors. Others include poetry and even novels in their completeness. But who cares?
BTW, I didn't realise that many of the books on this list are actually short story collections. If nothing else, this challenge could help you decide which works to seek out or to avoid, depending on whether you enjoy or dislike short stories.
