How about Hyperion? Haven't read, but I heard that it consists of a couple of shorter stories.

Ovid's metamorphosis

The Tales of Hoffmann. I only mention this because he's one of the better writers that gets zero love from Lit. Read the Golden Pot, or the Sandman-- simply fantastic. You got that? E.T.A. Hoffmann..

Damn, I (you)'d. ...

Fina collection of Kipling's short stories, or Poe

Both are really good.

Nathaniel Hawthorne's Tales

get the Library of America edition that has all of them

Not OP but what is Fina?

When you ask that, do you mean just any collection of short stories (like Lovecraft's Tales), or a group of stories that is arranged purposefully (like the Canterbury Tales)?

Don Quixote is a book of tales....

As is Gargantua and Pantagruel

I'm looking for any collection of tales in genres (gothic, fantasy, SciFi, weird, horror) but good fiction, like Aleph and Other Stories or Arabian Nights. Carver's realist short stories is an example something I'm not looking for.
