Muna Jabbur (Arabic: منى جبر, 1942–1964) was a Lebanese novelist.
Alongside her contemporary Layla Balabakki, she was regarded as one of the pioneering vanguards shaping the literary culture scene of Beirut in the 1960s.
[1] Born in the Akkar District of Lebanon, Jabbur authored the novel Fatah tafiha (Silly Girl) in 1962.
The book explores the life of a young woman called Nada who experiences depression due to her father's attempts to indoctrinate her into traditional womanhood, against the backdrop of a modernizing Beirut.
[4] Her second novel al-Ghirban wa-l-musub al-bayda (The Ravens and the White Gowns') was published posthumously in 1966.
