«Sultana» is the biography of Saudi princess Sultana Al-Sa'ud written by Jean P. Sasson, published by Fixot in paperback (309 pages, in French).
Princess Sultana Al-Sa'ud lives surrounded by wealth, but without freedom: her value is limited to bearing sons and she remains hidden behind the veil. To protect her daughters, she breaks her silence and denounces the situation of Saudi women: girls married to much older men, violence, seclusion and punishments that can end in death.
First instalment of the The Princess series. Translated from English by Marie-Thérèse Cuny; original: Princess: A True Story of Life Behind Veil in Saudi Arabia.
For readers interested in memoirs, feminism and the situation of women in Saudi Arabia.
Jean P. Sasson is an American writer whose work mainly centers around women in the Middle East.
