She has lived a long life and her eventful biography might be shared by at least a few Arab women. Although locked in the walls of her home, she is still trying to control the world using the telephone, the television, monitoring, the binoculars and consecutive servants. Her control also extends to her 55-year old son as the senior lady from Nazareth, who reminisces about her colourful past, has not said the last word yet.
