That can change a lot. Right now, I've been enjoying O Henry's short stories... his stuff is, Oh... delicious, I guess.

Difficult to choose one, but a short story by Jorge Luis Borges. He was the known master of genre. His stories challenge your imagination, intellect and are very interesting... in just 3-5 pages.
