THE BEST AMERICAN NONREQUIRED READING 2016 KART...

In a small but comfortable conference room  in a publishing house in San Francisco  a group of
high school students met weekly over the past year to read literary magazines  chapbooks 
graphic novels  and countless articles. They had some good times. There was a whiteboard in the
conference room  and often cartoons were drawn on this whiteboard. The cartoons were of varying
quality. By the end of the year  with the help of a similar committee of high school students
in Ann Arbor  and their guest editor  Rachel Kushner  they selected the contents of this
anthology. The Best American Nonrequired Reading 2016 features stories about Bulgarian
spaceships  psychedelic mushroom therapy  and a cyclorama in Iowa. If you don't know what a
