Assouline’s coffee-table book *Tangier Tangerine* takes readers on an unforgettable journey to the far north of Morocco, In this beautifully illustrated book, readers discover—with Souleiman Berrada as their guide—all the wonders Tangier has to offer and why you should visit.
Where Africa and Europe meet on either side of a narrow strait, Tangier has always belonged to those who came to the coast to reinvent themselves. Tangier Tangerine takes you through the city’s past and present, following the writers, artists, and musicians who have made the city iconic— from Paul Bowles, who wrote his North African stories in the cafés, to the color palette that Yves Saint Laurent discovered in the city’s light, and through the neighborhoods—from the chaos of the Grand Socco to the tranquil viewpoint of the Kasbah—that still set the city’s rhythm.
Written by Souleiman Berrada, secretary of the Tangier Photography Foundation since 2022, whose deep ties to the city open doors that are rarely seen; the book also takes readers inside the homes of the designers, curators, and antique dealers who have shaped Tangier’s distinctive style. Drawing on personal connections and photographs shared by the residents themselves, it offers an unusual perspective on a place where most people are merely passing through.
Given Prosper Assouline’s own Moroccan roots, this title holds special personal significance within the Assouline collection. For travelers seeking a quieter, less obvious route than the one through Marrakesh, the book ‘Tangier Tangerine’ takes travelers to the city’s most secluded corners and reveals a Tangier shaped as much by those who live there today as by the legends who once called it home.
