All About Fatma
This is a story of miracles that begin to happen to Fatma, who works as a housekeeper for Jael. A miracle isn’t against the laws of nature. On the contrary it shows us that above all our belief in the cause can justify the result. This story is a fun and humorous one about house cleaning and about real life, and in the story there are mice that sing, elephants that sigh and flowers and plants that grow at a rather alarming rate. This story is designed to bring adults and children together to talk about the importance of responsibility, but also to show how the underlying reason for being responsible in daily matters can also be in sync with our natural surroundings and bring us closer to these things. The story also has some interactions that show how to react when under pressure, instead of getting stressed.

Fatma
'There was a blue cast to Satjma's handsomely sculpted mesmerizing tale of earthbound witchery and celestial love." Fatma, an Arabian peasant girl, unwittingly embarks upon a strange journey of transformation the day her father marries her off to a snake handler. Unbeknownst to the new bride, her husband milks the venom of his snakes for use in potions he sells on the side. Bitten by one of the snakes, Fatma changes from naïve girl to sensuous woman. What's more, she now gains an arcane affinity for her husband's reptiles as well as a talent for controlling them. This trait will enable her to travel from the sands of Arabia to the shadows of the Netherworld beyond the realm of ordinary human experience. Resonating with ritual and mystery, Fatma is a fabulous tale of one woman's path to ecstasy—an enraptured vision of enchantment in this world and fulfillment in another. The first novel to be published in English by one of the most distinguished of modern Arabic writers, this imaginative work blends naturalistic prose, poetry, and song with all the magic of its author's abundant literary gifts.

She accompanied him to various postings in Palestine and Serbia, and shared with him the frustrations of the arbitrary periodic dismissals that characterized late Ottoman politics.
