I'm way more partial to short stories than novels (sometimes the shorter the better! :D ) as some of you may know.
I'm always on the lookout for new short story anthologies and collections (anthologies are generally better IMO). I've recently run across a couple of anthologies edited by Ben Marcus that are outstanding. He seems to have located a bunch of great stories that I have not previously read (along with a few that I have but are absolutely worth rereading).
Both highly recommended:
New American Short Stories
The Anchor Book of New American Short Stories
Enjoy!
