Hi Justin,
Good to hear from you today. Here are some titles:

House Made of Dawn, Scott Momaday; Ceremony, Leslie Silko; The Joy Luck
Club, Amy Tan; John Dollar, Marianne Wiggins; Heart of Darkness, Joseph
Conrad; As I Lay Dying, Willian Faulkner
How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents, Julia Alvarez--narrative
goes backwards
Short Stories: "Barn Burning," William Faulkner--stream of consciousness;
"The Magic Poker" and "The Elevator," Robert Coover--segments
See the paperback anthology Super Fiction: or The American Story
Transformed, ed. Joe Bellamy, Vintage Books Books, 1975, which contains
"The Elevator," Robert Coover and "Chiaroscuro" by Ursule Molinaro
Sorry, I could think of more novels than short stories. Hope these
are useful. Hope you're well. Good luck with the teaching.
