In Oranges are Not the Only Fruit Melanie was the first lover of the main character Jeanette. They were both religious and wanted to be missionaries. Jeanette described Melanie with words like sweet, lovely, beautiful, good and serene. Melanie had lovely grey eyes. Jeanette met Melanie at a fish stand. At first Melanie was reluctant to start a conversation with Jeanette, but eventually she caved in. Week after week Melanie worked at a fish stand boning kippers on a big marble slab and Jeanette went to watch her. Then, one week Jeanette didn't find her because Melanie had got a job in the library. She had to work there every Saturday morning. Melanie lived with her mother who often wasn't home. She had no father. Jeanette also learned that Melanie had such a funny name because when she was born she had looked like a melon. In my opinion, this indicates that Melanie was not that smart and had limited intellectual capacity.
