The Best American Nonrequired Reading 2017
The Best American Nonrequired Reading 2017 | Sarah Vowell, 826 National

A gift . . . One wonders how the world might be different if works in The Best American Nonrequired Reading were indeed required. USA Today Sarah Vowell, author of Lafayette in the Somewhat United States and other best-selling titles "gilded with snark, buoyant on charm" (NPR), worked with the students of the 826 Valencia writing lab to edit this year's anthology. They compiled new fiction, nonfiction, poetry, comics, and the category-defying gems that have become one of the hallmarks of this lively collection.

Excerpts from “Who are all these Trump supporters?” by George Saunders. It is one of the essays in this book. Very interesting reading so far. Next up, “My President was black” by Ta-Nehisi Coates.
