YOLD Review: Columbia Daily Spectator

There's a review of "The Year of Loving Dangerously" in the Columbia Daily Spectator, the student newspaper of my alma mater:

Working alongside renowned illustrator Pablo Callejo, Rall has created a work that is as visually striking as it is emotionally moving. The intricately detailed panels, many of them based on photo records of New York at the time, vividly reconstruct the context of Rall’s most trying year in all its grimy, punky detail. Illustrations of Rall in his old haunts—bars, record stores, underground concert halls, and Columbia’s campus—are as rich and evocative as photographs.

Blah blah blah. This is the quality of writer that they're letting into the Ivy Leagues these days? This paragraph is so syrupy that it could drown you, with the whole thing straining to sound sophisticated through giving too much descriptive detail in high diction.

But they're probably just 18 or 19 years old. Wait, no fuck 'em, they should write better than this.
