Can you recommend some short story collections?

There is 'Anton Chekhov's Short Stories'. Chekhov was a master of the short story form. His stories usually focus on the ordinary lives of people, revealing their hopes, dreams, and disappointments. His writing is very realistic and often makes readers think about human nature.

One possible short story collection in 1995 could be from Alice Munro. Her works often explore the lives of women and small - town life in a very profound way. Another could be from a less - known but still talented author who was emerging at that time, perhaps with a collection that focused on themes of youth and coming - of - age stories.

The 'Cthulhu Mythos' related books sometimes include short stories about Azathoth. For example, some of the more comprehensive anthologies that aim to cover the whole range of the Mythos often have at least one or two stories centered around this strange and terrifying entity. Check out your local library's horror section or search on Goodreads for such anthologies.

Ray Bradbury has some great short story collections. 'The Illustrated Man' contains a number of short stories that are both imaginative and thought - provoking. And of course, Edgar Allan Poe's short story collections are also worth checking out. His stories are often short but manage to create a very spooky and intense atmosphere.

Of course! Here are some well-known collections of short stories that I hope you will like: 1.One Hundred Years of Solitude (Garcia Márquez): This is a classic of Latin-American literature, describing the story of seven generations of the Buenda family. It is known as a classic in the history of world literature.
