Review:
This is the unforgettable and heart-wrenching true story of 'Sultana', a member of the Saudi royal family. Forced to protect her identity to avoid the wrath of the Saudi establishment, Sultana bravely lifts the veil on a world few outsiders ever see.

Think of a Saudi princess and you might imagine a life of glittering jewels and unbelievable luxury. But the reality, as Sultana reveals, is a gilded cage. With no freedom, no vote, and no control over her own life, her value is measured only as a bearer of sons. From her turbulent childhood to her arranged marriage, Sultana's story is a shocking indictment of the treatment of women in Saudi Arabia, exposing forced marriages, sex slavery, and appalling human rights violations.

Princess is a testimony to a woman of indomitable spirit and great courage. It is a fascinating, moving, and essential read for anyone interested in human rights and the hidden lives of women in the Middle East.
