  The structure of the neutron-rich carbon nucleus ^{16}C is described by
introducing a new microscopic shell model of no-core type. The model space is
composed of the 0s, 0p, 1s0d, and 1p0f shells. The effective interaction is
microscopically derived from the CD-Bonn potential and the Coulomb force
through a unitary transformation theory. Calculated low-lying energy levels of
^{16}C agree well with the experiment. The B(E2;2_{1}^{+} \to 0_{1}^{+}) value
is calculated with the bare charges. The anomalously hindered B(E2) value for
^{16}C, measured recently, is well reproduced.
