I've looked back through the write-ups I've put online of short-story collections. Here are collections that I'd most recommend to others - sometimes because of a particular story or two, sometimes because of the variety and general quality, sometimes because they're especially "good of their type".
- Little Red Transistor Radio from Trieste (Dragan Todorovic)
- The Beautiful Indifference (Sarah Hall) - real world
- The Moons of Jupiter (Alice Munro) - real world
- Stories of your other life (Ted Chiang) - SF-ish
- Assorted Fire Events (David Means)
- The Turing Test (Chris Beckett) - SF/Borges-ish
- Broken Things (Padrika Tarrant)
- Words from a glass bubble (Vanessa Gebbie)
Thank you for the mention, Tim - I was eternally grateful for your review - one of the most thorough and considered. (And always nice that you enjoyed it!)
