Review: (Sultana is a pseudonym to protect the identity of the princess) The book recounts the life of Princess Sultana, from childhood in the 1960s to married life and motherhood in the 1990s. This book made me research on women’s rights in Saudi Arabia, and even though, some of the tightly-bound restrictions have been lifted, women are still not free. She has an uncanny ability to let the reader relate emotionally and sympathize with the characters, sometimes empathize too. It is with complete sincerity that I say this book is, unputdownable. Jean Sasson, in my opinion, is one of the best feminism writers. Why did I get it: Feminism is a popular genre Where did I get the book: Lent to me by a friend, which led me to buying a copy for myself Series/Stand Alone: Series (Followed by Princess Sultana’s Daughters& Princess Sultana’s Circle) Title: Princess: A True Story of Life Behind the Veil in Saudi Arabia Jean Sasson, Princess: A True Story of Life Behind the Veil in Saudi Arabia “I’ve often observed that women can be the weakest link in women’s rights.” ![]()
