Summary This year's anthology of finalists and winners of the National Magazine Awards includes Ta-Nehisi Coates's much-discussed and debated "The Case For Reparations" (The Atlantic), Amanda Hess's explosive report on Internet sexual harassment (Pacific Standard), and John Jeremiah Sullivan's account of the intergenerational effort to solve one of American music's greatest mysteries (New York Times Magazine). The anthology also features articles chosen from ebecca Traister's acerbic musings on gender politics (New Republic) and Jerry Saltz's fearless art and architectural criticism (New York). Roger Angell offers humorous reflections on life at ninety (The New Yorker); Jeff Sharlet exposes Russia's unconscionable treatment of homosexuals (GQ); and Emily Yoffe reveals the unforeseen crimes committed in the struggle to address the college rape crisis (Slate). The collection concludes with a work of fiction by Donald Antrim (The New Yorker).
