PRINCESS SULTANA'S DAUGHTERS
Jean Sasson's compelling sequel to PRINCESS

Readers of Princess Sultana's extraordinary story, PRINCESS, were gripped by her powerful indictment of women's lives behind the veil. Now Jean Sasson and Princess Sultana turn the spotlight on Sultana's two teenage daughters, Maha and Amani.

As second-generation members of the royal family who have benefited from Saudi oil wealth, Maha and Amani are surrounded by untold opulence and luxury from the day they were born and which they take for granted. Stifled by the unbearably restrictive lifestyle imposed on them, they have
reacted in equally desperate ways. Their dramatic and shocking stories are set against a rich backcloth of Saudi Arabian culture and social mores which are depicted with equal color and authenticity.

Throughout, Sultana never tires of her quest to expose the injustices which her society levels against women. Princess Sultana once more strikes a chord amongst all women who are lucky enough to have the freedom to speak out for themselves.
