A Person Is a Verb
By Sonny Saggar
Planned book · Working title · No publication date announced
What if a person is something happening? Bodies, memories and relationships invite a fresh look at who we are.
A place to begin
You keep a name while your habits, memories and relationships change. Continuity need not mean remaining identical in every respect.
A question worth arguing with
Which changes would make you say that somebody has become a different person?
Try this
List something you do repeatedly that helps others recognise you. Could the action change without your identity disappearing?
This is a new introductory companion to the proposed book’s subject, not an extract from a completed manuscript.
