'Through My Eyes reveals the author’s perceptions of living and working in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia between 2003 – 2006. The words that Helen Parker has compiled are not without complexity, humour and a diverse perception of an unreal world. There are those that wilt like a desert rose, and there are those that walk in the shadows of the desert sands, striving to survive like desert roses in this intense culture controlled by religion and males. Living in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has given the author insight and a disturbing exposure of the dilemmas facing both expatriates and young Saudi’s [sic] today. Writing this book has been both compelling and rewarding.'
