In regards to your question "Why isn't this documented anywhere?", it is documented somewhere -- in the documentation string for clojure.edn/read, the very function you were attempting to use:
user=> (doc clojure.edn/read) ------------------------- clojure.edn/read ([] [stream] [opts stream]) Reads the next object from stream, which must be an instance of java.io.PushbackReader or some derivee. stream defaults to the current value of *in*. etc. As far as why it requires a PushbackReader, I didn't design the API. Yes, some things in Clojure require using Java interop, and in many (but not all) cases, file I/O requires it.
