With Rouge Tangerine, Hanane Oulaïllah Jazouani presents a collection of short stories where fiction intertwines with harsh reality—marked by resilience and the inescapable tragedy of battered lives. Published by Éditions Infimes, the book explores human flaws through six narratives, wielding a sharp and visceral pen.
Everything changes where tangerine red appears. Lip balm, a cushion, suede boots—ordinary objects become ominous omens, foreshadowing drama. Set between the Maghreb and Normandy, the collection follows characters navigating shattered hopes and silent struggles. Far from pathos, Hanane Oulaïllah Jazouani captures the essence of suffering and tenacity, offering glimpses into lives where injustice strikes without warning.
A former journalist in Morocco—where she worked with Radio Atlantic and Yabiladi under the name Hanane Jazouani—the author now teaches in Seine-Saint-Denis. Yet it is in Fécamp, Normandy, that her writing finds refuge, carried by the call of the sea and the inspiration of Maupassant. Winner of an international writing contest in 2011 with Le Cadenas, she had already made her mark before publishing À vous de voter les enfants, a children’s book released in Casablanca.
With Rouge Tangerine, Hanane Oulaïllah Jazouani affirms her talent for crafting emotionally rich, introspective stories. An intense collection where each tale cracks open the ordinary, revealing both the beauty and brutality of fate.
