Girls of Riyadh, eller Banat al-Riyad, är en roman av Rajaa Alsanea. [I]n August 2007, the Daily Telegraph reported a story about a young Saudi girl in Riyadh who was killed by her father after he walked into her room and found her chatting to a man on Facebook. The narrator of Girls of Riyadh (Banat al-Riyadh in the original Arabic) sends out anonymous emails about the clandestine romances of four of her friends. A bestseller authored by Rajaa Alsanea. A review, and links to other information about and reviews of Girls of Riyadh by Rajaa Alsanea. Managed to read it in between work (thank god didn't get caught by boss). 'Girls of Riyadh' is a novel by a young Saudi woman Rajaa Alsanea. Originally released in Arabic in 2005, the novel Girls of Riyadh or Banat al-Riyadh, was immediately banned in Saudi Arabia due to controversial and inflammatory content. Rajaa Al Sanea's Girls of Riyadh follows four 'velvet class' (super rich) Saudi women in the post-secondary education phase of their lives. For me it was a chance reading. Imagine a book that tells the tale of four girls' lives, loves and losses. This week finally I finished the book. On October 1st we discussed about Girls of Riyadh (Benaat al Riyadh) by Rajaa Alsanea. Boken, skriven i form av e-mail, handlar om fyra unga kvinnor i Riyadh och dears liv. Rajaa AlSanea, a college aged Saudi girl, wrote a book called The Girls of Riyadh some time ago. A book that has been translated to English from Arabic and was once banned in Saudi. I am currently reading Girls of Riyadh. The setting is in the city Riyadh of Saudi Arabia. The religious police of Saudi Arabia raided a party at a famous hotel where approximately 100 girls participated in the most beautiful 'tomboy' contest. The novel created quite a noise here in the Middle East.
