'Téa Mutonji writes sharply about the subtle ruptures endemic to formative friendships' - RAVEN LEILANI, Women's Prize-longlisted author of LUSTER Tania and Margot, best friends for over twenty years, are preparing to host their monthly Sunday Loaf dinner party when Tania tells Margot this isn't working for her anymore - that she wants to 'unknow' her.But how do you extricate yourself from someone whose family owns the apartment you live in, who has taken you in as their own, even claims you as their 'person'?Stuck in the framework of a tense will-they-won't-they break-up, Tania and Margot become entangled in a rigorous revision of history, their once delicate dance intensifying toward a frantic finale.As Margot, the leaver, disappears herself and Tania, the drinker, spirals into sex and drugs, jeopardizing both her book deal and her livelihood, they're forced to reckon with where it all went wrong...or whether they were simply wrong for each other to being with. A taut, piercing exploration of girlhood and identity, and the life-altering ways in which world-defining friendships can be both beautiful and excruciating, My Person is an addictive, astutely observed novel from a major new talent.
