Partial Genius

By Mary Biddinger

What happens when you finally realize that you are really good, but only at unremarkable things? What value does memory hold when weighed against heavier commodities such as money and time and conventional beauty? The prose poems of PARTIAL GENIUS build upon the form in a collective narrative, working in unison to craft a larger story. Post-youth and mid-epiphany, PARTIAL GENIUS ponders the years spent waiting for reconciliation of past wrongs, the acknowledgment of former selves, and the desire to truly fit into one landscape or another.
