I'm reading Winsburg Ohio, Collected Stories of Faulkner, and The Complete Works of Flannery O'Connor at the same time. I'm taking a creative writing class and want to study the short stories. After I'm finished one I'll add another collection like Nine Stories, Hemmingway's stories, and probably a reread of Dubliners.
