After reading your excerpt, I was worried that your sister was chronicliing come weird child abuse where she was taken to bars, at 7 years of age, and forced to listen to Columbia intellectuals read their triumphal poems dedicated to all sorts of dead 19th century poets. And, that by calling for putting the balls back in prose, it was a reclamation of some sort. I was glad to see it was just some self induced abuse at 7 at night. Makes you wonder what happens when media outlets do that kind of thing on purpose. I agree, more balls in prose, and possibly at Columbia too.
Phew, am i glad I read her whole post
