If you don't find that, finding 'The Aleph' is going to be just as good.

It has some of Borges's quintessential stories, such as 'Funes the Memorious', 'The Library of Babel', 'Tlon, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius' and a personal favorite of mine 'The Circular Ruins'. While the Collected Fictions would also be my recommendation since the book contains everything and not just a selection, if you want to just get a small book and go from there, I'd suggest getting Ficciones.
