In the presence of Dr. Hoger T. Tawfiq, Dean of the Faculty of Humanities, and the academic staff, along with the university students, the University of Zakho organized a seminar for the writer and novelist Mr. Sabri Slevaney.

The seminar discussed the novel as a literary objective that aims to describe community, identify problems and solve them.

Mr. Sabri Slevaney stated that the novel is a credible monitoring of reality without embellishment. Additionally, it does not flourish in a society with rigid thoughts. He also claimed that the majority of novels written nowadays contradict the reality. Novel is not just a piece of paper filled with words, but rather an idea.

Eventually, a discussion session emerged and Mr. Sabri Slevaney concluded his speech by expressing his sincere gratitude to the University of Zakho for being a guest at the university.
