The book "Narrative of the Self" has received significant and unprecedented popularity among readers from diverse cultural backgrounds.

Al-Qasimi Publications has accomplished numerous translations of His Highness Sheikh Dr. Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi's works in collaboration with over twenty publishers and printers in several countries, including the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and India.

In "Narrative of the Self," His Highness Sheikh Dr. Sultan bin Muhammad Al-Qasimi speaks about himself as an ambitious young man with all the dreams, adventures, frustrations, and aspirations that the word "youth" carries. He does not embellish or flatter, even though the power of the pen is in his hands. However, the courage to talk about the life he has lived as it is makes the self-narrative closer to the reader's emotions, granting the book respect, appreciation, and a significant position, with all the feelings, introspections, honesty, transparency, and revelations it holds in its presentation.

The "Al-Qasimi Publications" pavilion at the 32nd edition of the Abu Dhabi International Book Fair, which recently concluded, witnessed a remarkable turnout from the Emirati and Arab youth to acquire the works of His Highness Sheikh Dr. Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, especially the biographies, novels, and history books.
