The Best American Nonrequired Reading 2006



by: 
Book Two 
Review:
This is a collection of fiction, nonfiction, essays, journalism, comics, and humor. Below are the pieces that stood out for me the most. Although, it took me on and off two years to read this anthology, it was a complete page turner that could be enjoyed over and over again.
  • First Sentences of Novels of 2005
  • Things to Know about Chuck Norris
  • New Words and Phrases
  • Haruki Murakami. "THE KIDNEY-SHAPED STONE THAT MOVES EVERY DAY"
  • George Saunders. "THE NEW MECCA"
  • Kurt Vonnegut, "HERE IS A LESSON IN CREATIVE WRITING"
