Vonnegut actually has some very beautiful short stories. His style lends more to them, i think.

I agree. I think Hemingway is similar in that his style is better suited to the short story. In Our Time is fantastic.

Brief Interviews With Hideous Men has some real stand out stories (especially the last interview). Algernon Blackwood's 'The Willows' and Barthelme's works are always worth a read.
