    Sultana Al-Sa'ud, a Saudi Arabian Princess, has four mansions on three continents, her own private jet, glittering jewels, and designer dresses galore. But in reality, Sultana has no freedom or control over her own life, no value but as a bearer of sons. Hidden behind her black floor-length veil, she is a prisoner, jailed by her father, her husband, her sons, and her country. For the sake of her daughters, Sultana has decided to take the risk of speaking out about the life of women in her thirteen-year-old girls forced to marry men five times their age, young women killed by drowning, stoning, or isolation in the women's room, a padded, windowless cell where women are confined with neither light nor conversation until death claims them. In speaking out, Sultana risks bringing the wrath of the Saudi establishment upon her head. But by telling her story to Jean Sasson, Sultana allows us to see beyond the veils of this secret society, to the heart of a nation where sex, money, and power reign supreme.NY times bestseller"Absolutely riveting and profoundly sad…" —People magazine"A chilling story… a vivid account of an air-conditioned nightmare..." —Entertainment Weekly"Must-reading for anyone interested in human rights." —USA Today"Shocking… candid… sad, sobering, and compassionate" —San Francisco Chronicle

    Je říjen roku 1992 a já, princezna Sultana as-Saúd, hraji jednu z hlavních rolí v příběhu, který nic nezamlčuje, líčí události tak, jak probíhaly. Horečné vzrušení se ve mně mísí se zoufalstvím. Vím, že každý z pospaných osudů bude čtenářům připadat neuvěřitelný, pokud nevezmou v úvahu barbarství, s jakým naši muži zacházejí se ženami. Jak přijme mocná rodina As-Suadů mé svědectví? Další osudy princezny Sultany a jejích dcer... celý text

    When Jean Sasson's book Princess: Life Behind the Veil in Saudi Arabia was published, it became an immediate international bestseller. It sold to 43 countries and spent 13 weeks on The New York Times bestseller list. Now, in this long-awaited, compelling new book, Sasson and the Princess 'Sultana' return to tell the world what it means to be a Saudi woman today. Through advances in education and with access to work, Saudi women are breaking through the barriers; they are becoming doctors, social workers, business owners and are even managing to push at the boundaries of public life. Major steps forward have, undoubtedly, been made. But this is not the whole story. Sadly, despite changes in the law, all too often legal loopholes leave women exposed to terrible suppression, abuse and crimes of psychological and physical violence. For many, the struggle for basic human rights continues. This fascinating insight will include personal stories of triumph and heartbreak, as told to Princess 'Sultana', her eldest daughter, and author Jean Sasson. Each of these stories will offer the reader a glimpse into different aspects of Saudi society, including the lives of the Princess, her daughter and other members of the Al-Saud Royal family.
