It was my dad's copy of Martian Chronicles that did it. The musty little paperback, stained by the acidic paper and smelling of dust, so amazed me that I've loved science-fiction ever since.
With that in mind I've included two short story collections:
Future Primitive: The New Ecotopias. Edited by Kim Stanley Robinson, this collection of short stories includes the outstanding "Bears Discover Fire" by Terry Bisson.
The Year's Best Science Fiction Twenty-third Annual Collection (Year's Best Science Fiction) Another collection of science-fiction stories, this one includes Alastair Reynolds' "Spy in Europa" and my favorite "Timequakes" by David Gerrold.
I'm also continuing to read and try to understand poetry, and thus I have Camille Paglia's Break, Blow, Burn: Camille Paglia Reads Forty-three of the World's Best Poems
