«Les filles de Sultana» is Jean P. Sasson's testimony about Saudi women, published by XO Éditions in hardback (250 pages, in French).
The work focuses on the testimony of Sultana, a princess of the Saudi royal family, to show the harsh restrictions imposed on women in Saudi Arabia: seclusion, surveillance and lack of basic rights. Between opulence and gender oppression, it vindicates dignity and denounces a society that leaves women only their veil and their grave.
The French edition was published in 1995 and the work is classified in the Literature and Fiction category.
A read for those interested in the condition of women in the Arab world and in testimonies of social denunciation.
