“I’m a proper south London girl for ever,” Carty-Williams declares, after welcoming me into her home in Streatham, just round the corner from where she grew up, which she was able to buy thanks to Queenie. As I go through my life I will always write the things that I’m trying to make sense of That’s it.” Also set in south London, People Person is about a non-nuclear family coming together rather than falling apart, but again touches on contemporary issues such as social media, revenge porn and distrust of the police. “It’s time to write something that is just about Black people. “Queenie was so much about Blackness in response to whiteness, I’ve said what I needed to say about that,” she says. I have to write it all down,’” the author, now 33, says when we meet to talk about her much-anticipated second novel, People Person. “Queenie was this big burst of 25-year-old energy: ‘I am sick of sexism and going on bad dates and hearing all this shit, and my friends having to go through all this shit, and going through shit at work.

The novel has sold more than half a million copies and is being made into a TV drama on Channel 4.īut where Bridget Jones’s Diary now seems dated in terms of sexual politics, Queenie is often deeply shocking in its depiction of the heroine’s treatment at the hands of a series of toxic men, taking in internet dating, mental health problems and the housing crisis, as well as everything else that goes with being a young woman.
