Etgar Keret’s short story collections run from The Bus Driver Who Wanted To Be God & Other Stories in 2001 through to Autocorrect in 2025, a span of more than two decades. The nine titles in this list form the core of his output as a short fiction writer, with new collections appearing every few years across the 2000s and 2010s.
The earlier titles — Gaza Blues (2004), The Nimrod Flipout (2005), Missing Kissinger (2007) — came in close succession, while the pace slowed later, with Fly Already arriving in 2019 and Autocorrect not until 2025. Reading them in publication order gives a clear sense of how Keret’s short fiction has developed over time, though each collection stands on its own and there is no continuous narrative connecting them.
