Short story listens?

I read a Fredick Backman book that was 2 hours that was pretty good. Do you know of any other short story reads similar in story or length?

Francesca Lia Block's Psyche In A Dress. It's a modern retelling of the myth of Eros and Psyche in a kind of poetry prose. I used to have to wait a bit over an hour to catch my bus home from work because it was kind of far out and I read it in one sitting waiting for it. It's a pretty good read, especially if you're a fan of Greek myths.

If you just sit down to read it through Margaret Mahy's The Changeover is another really good short read that only takes maybe 2-3 hours to get through. It's about a teenage girl who's little brother gets cursed by a demon thing and she has to figure out how to save him with the help of a strange boy at her school.

The River has Roots by Amal el-mohtar is quite short, pretty new and fairytale-esque. Murder ballad poetry
