Any of the short stories by Rolad Dahl. He's incredible. If you haven't read any of his short shorties its a definate must, stories like "Lamb To The Slaugther", or "The Hitchhiker". The closest writer I know that is very Dahl like is T.C. Boyle is is also one of my favorites when it comes to short stories. Read all of his stories too, you won't regret it. "Top of the Food Chain" is a bona fide classic.
