I just read Winesburg, Ohio and I was blown away. I loved the small town themes. I loved the simple, but impactful writing. I just loved it. Should I read more Anderson? Where do I go next? Any recommendations for other books like this? Bonus if short stories.

Hey no worries man. If you were in Western Europe I'd have mailed it to you.

Also google: "short story cycle", on the wiki are other books of a similar structure at least. I'd also recommend What's Eating Gilbert Grape (the novel) for similar small-town feels.

Mohawk and Empire Falls by Richard Russo

Some great small town writing. Give Flannery O' Connor's short stories a try as well.

Martian chronicles by Bradbury. He even name drops winesburg, Ohio in the intro.
Obviously more sci fi but I think you'll find many parallels

Anything by Carson McCullers, really. John Cheever, for that matter. You might also like Annie Dillard.
