Reading: Kinsey Cantrell with Hanif Abdurraqib
cells, fully differentiated is an account of non-diagnosis, an experiment in mining memory and parsing trauma in an ultimately failed attempt to construct narrative. against a backdrop of social and economic precarity, the narrator’s effort to understand becomes cyclical. fully differentiated cells are cells that have been defined, cells that have an explicit role in the functioning of the human body. if understanding and diagnosis are in service of the larger structures of capitalism, then ultimately cells, fully differentiated rejects that understanding.Kinsey Cantrell is a Brooklyn-based poet. Her debut collection of poetry, cells, fully differentiated (Noemi Press, 2025) won the 2023 Noemi Press Book Award. Her work has appeared in Protean Magazine, Electric Literature, SICK Magazine, Booth, Black Warrior Review, and elsewhere, and has been nominated for the Pushcart Prize and Best of the Net. She studied epidemiology and biostatistics at the City University of New York.
