Princess Sultana's Circle by Jean P. Sasson (2000, Hardcover)

This book is great tons and tons of drama, it also gives you a good background of the Middle-East in the past

Well, I bought this book because I had had two first books of this circle. They were really nice in my teens, but the third is too dull to be read by anyone except real fans of the author (Maybe the problem is that I`m 25 now?). On and on about difficulties of the women`s life in muslim world - only using black colour. It is look like a bad kind of primitive comics (I`m not a muslim, I just want to see the whole picture with its pluses and minuses).

Should be on every university reading list. This book is written from the perspective of a royal princess in Saudi Arabia. They have horrible laws and customs against women there even today.

This book is a window into the lives of women in the Middle East. Good insight and worth reading. Makes you think, if it's already difficult for women who are of the royal family, what more of the regular people? One would have thought that with all their wealth, they would liberate members in their own family. But I guess not!

I have learned alot about middle eastern women in this book. It's a must read for everyone. I highly recommend this book to everyone. Gives you a clear description of the plight of the women in other parts of the world. Makes me glad to be and American and as a woman I know I have rights.
