We all know the value of "best of" lists but I thought this one might interest some of you. They've put together a list of the 10 best short story collections of '00's. While they're mostly sci-fi and fantasy there's a few that might interest readers here and the comments section contains a great many more not included on the list. http://www.avclub.com/articles/the-10-best-shortstory-collectons-of-the-00s,35747/
