He then pointed out to "Da" and "Nuruddin; Iran's Son" saying: "These books had their own type of influence, since they are inspired by the war's realities, innocence and sacrifices which occurred during the war."
The works' reprints indicate the peoples and young generation's interest in such kind of books, he added.

The minister added:" We owe them since their books are too impressive. The ministry purchases the books and sends them to public libraries. Thus purchasing the books is a support made by the Ministry of Islamic Guidance and Culture."
He went on to say that holding such gatherings are great and added:" These kind of gatherings encourage the injured war veteran authors to express their words and say the untold stories of the war years and which will indeed lead to the registration of the memories."
He added that "Nuruddin; Iran's Son" is a precious and effective book. Through the book, the reader gets to know about a part of the war."
In other news, he added that the ministry sends the books to different cultural institutes which indeed promote the books.
He said that translation is a precious work which should be considered more. Nowadays many eager readers throughout the world like to read such books and we should try to render some of them into other languages.
