This is really an outsider's look at the inside of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia as she was raised in Switzerland and is half Swiss and half Persian. What an interesting insider's look too! She has some astute observations. I kept waiting for her husband to "lower the boom" on her outspoken ways compared to the other women in the country, but he seemed to let her continue to express herself. I found her book fascinating.
