In Jean Sasson's documentary book, the reader is presented with a fascinating series of events from the life of our contemporary, the princess of the royal house of Saudi Arabia. The author lifts the veil of secrecy that shrouds the mysterious world of the Arab East for Europeans, where the latest achievements of civilization coexist with the dark traditions of the Middle Ages. The book is based on unique documents and personal experience of the writer, who lived in the Middle East for many years.
