Marga d’Andurain was a French adventuress whose life was shrouded in intrigue and speculation. Driven by an indomitable spirit, she pursued extraordinary experiences, leading to accusations of espionage, murder, and smuggling. Her ambition was to be the first European woman to enter the holy city of Mecca, a pursuit that cemented her legendary status. Her dramatic life was cut short by her assassination aboard her yacht.
"Passport Husband" recounts Marga d'Andurain's daring journey to the Middle East in 1933, where she converts to Islam to enter Mecca. After her "passport husband" is murdered, she faces accusations and a damaging file created by Syrian authorities. This 1947 work is now available in English, featuring the author's biography.
