Could you recommend some modern short story collections, please?

[WaterBird]

I suppose that by "modern", I mean something within the last few decades. I like pretty much everything except horror and fantasy. So far, the best collections I have read have been by Jojo Moyes, Patrick Gale, and Fay Weldon.
Thanks!

Anything by the Canadian writer Alice Munro, who is a genius. Edna O’Brien’s Saints and Sinners.

I’m enjoying Roar by Cecelia Ahern at the moment. Has magical realism elements.

Thanks so much. I've read some of Alice Munro's stuff and will have to check out Edna oBrien.

I didn't know that Cecilia Ahern does short stories too. Will have to look into these.

The Pastures of Heaven by John Steinbeck.

I have the Curtis sittingfeld collection of short stories in my Amazon basket. I haven't read them (obvs!) but they look great!

I really enjoyed Margaret Atwood's 'Stone Mattress'.

I'm very tempted by the Curtis Sittenfeld ones too. Heard great things and loved her novels.

Maybe Binchy's Victoria Line, Circle Line is excellent - it has a wonderful retro feel now!

For sci fi lyrical fantasy I always loved Ray Bradbury's The Illustrated Man.

The New Yorker short story podcasts are free and a great way of finding new authors.

I'm enjoying the Tom Hanks collection, Uncommon Type; at least the three I've read so far.

Helen Simpson, who has several collections. Four Bare Legs on a Bed is the earliest I think.

An American called Lorrie Moore is also excellent.

Not all modern but a great variety:

I just want to thank everyone for all your suggesttions.
Have now been reading Helen Simpson's collection titled "Get A Life" and like it a lot.
