One of his great stories is 'The Knife Thrower'. It's a story that combines elements of the strange and the alluring. The description of the knife thrower's act and the atmosphere around it are really captivating.

'Edwin Mullhouse: The Life and Death of an American Writer, 1943 - 1954, by Jeffrey Cartwright' is also a notable work. It's a very unique take on a fictional biography, with Millhauser using his creative style to build a world around this fictional writer. It plays with the concepts of writing, identity, and how we perceive others.
