Tangerine

Straits Times Press

Regular price $9.00 SGD

Armed with Contax T2, a Lonely Planet guidebook and a compulsion he doesn't quite understand, Nick, a young photo journalist, travels down the highways of Vietnam to a long-awaited gathering with four dear friends.

In a land where the scars of war are still visible, Nick finds a surprising beauty and humanity among the Vietnamese people and his fellow travelers, reaching a truth within himself that is lucid yet muted.

A novella of youth and urge for discovery and renewal, Tangerine received the Singapore Literature Prize in 1996, and is the only Singaporean novel to be selected for the NLB's READ! Singapore initiative.
