"Dreaming of Her" by Pamela Colloff is the exclusive oral history of Selena Quintanilla Perez, as recalled by her closest family and friends. "He Ain't Going Nowhere" by John Spong profiles Guy Clark, the godfather of Nashville songwriters. "A Home of Last Resort" by Sonia Smith reports on a doomsday community for the rich under construction in Ector, Texas. "The Shelf Life of John Mackey" by Tom Foster is the exclusive story that led up to that momentous decision for Whole Foods to sell itself to Amazon.
