NEED short story recommendations. Any genre. Something interesting, thought-provoking, the kinda story that gets stuck in your brain like a popcorn kernel.

story of your life by ted chiang is a good collection of short stories if you're into sci-fi. one of the stories was adapted to the movie arrival (2006)!

‘Tower of Babylon’ from that collection is something I loved.

same!! that one and the one with angels are my faves :D
