I did an entire semester of independent study on novellas when I was in grad school.

Favorites:
Jacob's Room / Virginia Woolf
Breakfast at Tiffany's / Truman Capote (so different from the movie and much better)
The Dead / James Joyce
Bartleby, the Scrivener / Herman Melville (hilarious)
Brokeback Mountain / Annie Proux

Claire Keegan's work, not necessarily novella, more like long short story, but near enough and all brilliant:

Foster
Small Things Like These
So Late in the Day
