Some really short stories:

Hemingway's self confessed best short story :

"For sale: baby shoes, never worn"
He wrote it in just six words but it brings so much with it.  I googled and found a few other such short stories  by some other authors  :) Read on they are all just six word stories :)

Longed for him. Got him. Shit.
- Margaret Atwood

Lie detector eyeglasses perfected: Civilization collapses.
- Richard Powers

We went solar; sun went nova.
- Ken MacLeod
