Women of King Farouk

Isn''t it strange that more than seventy-seven books have been written about King Farouk, none of which are specialized political books, even though he is one of the most important kings in Egypt and the Arab region? But these books say about him: youth, money, women, love affairs, and scandals. King Farouk played the game of power and sex on a large scale, lust for gambling, lust for women, and nothing after that.Therefore, half of the letters of the English ambassador, Lord Killearn, to his country were about the king''s women: "A letter about his meeting with Camelia in Cyprus" - "A letter about his promiscuity at Princess Shweikar''s parties and his attachment to Princess Tousun" - "A letter about the king having a favorite dancer like King Herod, but the new Salome is Samia Gamal"... It is the story of the throne that was lost by passion.
