What traits define literary genius? In my opinion, literary geniuses are people with acute observational skills, a powerful ability to introspect, and a heightened sensitivity to human emotions. (Of course, there will be outliers that fuck up this definition, but I overall think it's relatively accurate) What does /lit think?

i think it involves having a vast vision of being human which is independent of historical circumstances and then developing language to capture it, bending and forcing language in new ways in the process
