Tangerine by Christine Mangan Book Summary

NATIONAL BESTSELLER

“A juicy melodrama cast against the sultry, stylish imagery of North Africa in the fifties.” —The New Yorker

The last person Alice Shipley expected to see since arriving in Tangier with her new husband was Lucy Mason. After the accident at Bennington, the two friends—once inseparable roommates—haven’t spoken in over a year. But there Lucy was, trying to make things right and return to their old rhythms. Perhaps Alice should be happy. She has not adjusted to life in Morocco, too afraid to venture out into the bustling medinas and oppressive heat. Lucy—always fearless and independent—helps Alice emerge from her flat and explore the country. 

But soon a familiar feeling starts to overtake Alice—she feels controlled and stifled by Lucy at every turn. Then Alice’s husband, John, goes missing, and Alice starts to question everything around her: her relationship with her enigmatic friend, her decision to ever come to Tangier, and her very own state of mind.

Tangerine is a sharp dagger of a book—a debut so tightly wound, so replete with exotic imagery and charm, so full of precise details and extraordinary craftsmanship, it will leave you absolutely breathless.

Optioned for film by George Clooney’s Smokehouse Pictures, with Scarlett Johansson to star

Not worth your time. I read this book in its entirety in the hopes that there would be a plausible twist in the fate of these characters. Unfortunately it was all neatly wrapped in favor of the antagonist. Which, in all honesty is not likely in the real world. Aunt Maude would have picked up on the deceit that unfolded in front of her (I say this by the way the author created her personality-formidable). Now I don’t even want to visit Tangier. Bummed that I gave my time to this book.

Tangerine. Must be good when you want to shake one of the characters (Alice) for being so naive.

SAMUEL MAFFIE. FRIDAY FEBRUARY 4 14 (2020)

Deeply unsatisfying. Partially brings tangier to life, but not the characters or storyline

Escapist remix. *Spoilers ahead* A quick read to have a moment of fun escapism, but I never escaped anywhere real or haven’t been already. A rehash is harsh, but a remix is generous. It has all the potential ingredients but bland. We never feel Tangier sensorily materialize on skin or in bones, nor do any of the characters past surface gender re-renderings of a Tom Ripley cut and paste. Felt like a draft of all things already done. Car accidents, sad fragile orphans, gaslighting, cut brakes, bodies thrown from cliffs, murderous rocks held overhead poised in unreliable narration of fates colliding, passport cons and horizonless epilogues. Everyone sweating and flushing and blushing in clinging blouses and cocktails is not place. I did enjoy the two narrator style but didn’t feel connected to either. I still would recommend for a read and still am pining to see Morocco IRL.

Five stars. Beautifully written and incredible story. Character development on point. Thoroughly enjoyed!

Tangerine. One of the worst books I have ever read and I read over 100 books a year. Don’t waste your money.

Really Enjoyed This!. The hot sun of Tangiers sets the mood for this highly atmospheric, dark story about a psychologically fragile, weak minded woman who gets hopelessly entangled in the snare of another deeply disturbed woman. Good book, well written.
