Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Poor. 1st Edition. First edition, published in Beirut in 1963 during a formative period in Lebanese publishing.

Dust jacket present and intact, though heavily chipped and edgeworn. Rima Alamuddin (1941 to 1963) was a Lebanese writer and journalist active during Beirut's vibrant literary scene of the early 1960s. Spring to Summer, published in 1963, remains her principal literary work and reflects the promise of an emerging voice in modern Middle Eastern literature in English. Tragically, her life was cut short later that same year at the age of 22, lending additional historical interest to this scarce first appearance.
