A Universal History of Iniquity | 
so-soI read this because I had been told that he is one of the modern literary greats. He writes nicely but many of these stories are based on others. The stories are an exercise in writing as he himself said.

A personal favorite; this is the edition I read & loved many years ago -- fictionalized stories about real historical criminals. "The Disinterested Killer Bill Harrigan" & "Monk Eastman, Purveyor of Iniquities" partially inspired a short film I made.
