Fragile Future for Saudi Arabia
Book cover of ‘On Saudi Arabia: Its People, Past, Religion, Fault Lines – and Future.’
Saudi Arabia is a nation on the brink of change. What exactly is this change and how it will play out is the subject of the new book, “On Saudi Arabia,” by journalist Karen Elliott House.
House has covered Saudi Arabia for 30 years as a diplomatic correspondent for the Wall Street Journal.
She says as the leadership of their nation ages and its younger generation seeks direction, concern for stability is a major concern for many Saudis.
