A question-and-answer session with Javlon Jovliyev, a writer who entered Uzbek literature in a unique way with the work "Fear", a member of the Writers' Union of Uzbekistan. In the interviews, the students received answers to the questions they were interested in regarding the novel "Fear" and the writer's current work.
- Samarkand is a city that is a source of pride for every Uzbek, - says writer Javlon Jovliyev, - No matter where they go, foreigners know Uzbekistan through Samarkand. From time immemorial, Samarkand served as a base not only for social and political life, but also for science and literature. Literature is a force capable of illuminating the dark points of life with the light of creativity. Every literature collected here has a reflection of this light in the heart. At today's meeting, I was happy to see the love of Samarkand readers for literature. In the current conditions, such active reading promotion is very important for the promotion of our literature.
"Every time I come to Samarkand, when I pass by the Samarkand State University, I feel special pride and respect in my heart when I remember the special charm of this high school, the fact that our teachers, who are the real pillars of our literature, graduated from this school," says poet Shuhrat Arif. , - The "Shalola" literary circle established at Samarkand State University produced such personalities as Karim Bahriyev, Amon Matjon, Arif Tokhtash, and Nadir Jonuzoq. The literary-creative environment created by this circle is still stable, and it cultivates young artists who enter the world of literature with hope. Recently, we invited a group of members of this club to the "Qaqnus" club. Listening to their creations, I was convinced that the bravery of this environment is still alive. Every young person studying at this university should leave his mark with his knowledge and creativity on such a great name of Samarkand State University, which embodies the history and glorious history.
In the lively meeting with the magic of creativity and the fire of literature, the poet Shuhrat Arif, who has a special place in Uzbek literature and has won the hearts of the people with his sincere poems, created a real creative mood in the meeting. because of the writer Javlon Jovliyev's beautiful thoughts that evoke deep observation, the listeners received a number of useful recommendations on how to love literature and books and feed them with sharp reflections on life.
This creative meeting, which was attended by artists who have their own word and place in Uzbek literature, was extremely useful for young people who are just entering the world of creativity and lovers of literature.
