Téa Mutonji writes sharply about the subtle ruptures endemic to formative friendships. --Raven Leilani, bestselling author of Luster

Searing . . . an essential new voice in contemporary fiction. --#1 New York Times bestselling author Carley Fortune

Sexy, infuriating, and unbelievably fun to read . . . This is a writer who can read someone to filth in just one line. --Katie Yee, author of Maggie; or, A Man and a Woman Walk Into a Bar

A bold debut from an exhilarating, multi-award-winning young writer, following two lifelong friends who suddenly find themselves in an emotional deadlock when one abruptly proposes to break up after years of subtle betrayals.

Best friends of over twenty years, Tania and Margot are preparing to host their monthly Sunday Loaf dinner party, when Tania tells Margot this isn't working for her anymore--they've been entangled for too long, 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?

As Tania attempts to live her life loudly on the outskirts of Margot's bubble, Margot's past betrayals become increasingly clear. But she means well, doesn't she? They had felt like sisters from the start. Or had Tania just been blind to Margot's antics? Set in the framework of a tense will-they-won't-they break-up, Tania and Margot get entangled in a rigorous revision of history, their once delicate dance intensifying toward a frantic finale that neither person sees coming.

A taut, piercing exploration of race and privilege, codependency, and the ways in which world-defining friendships can be both beautifully and excruciatingly life altering, My Person is an addicting, astutely observed novel from an astonishing new talent.
