A Handful of Dharma
The Fluted Girl
The People of Sand and Slag

Every single one of those stories is a jewel! You can find 'em here:
Well, it isn't that I don't appreciate Bacigalupi's ability, but "The Fluted Girl" is not for the squeamish. That one squicked me out. It's very well written (which might be a disadvantage, considering), but the subject is disturbing.
