Within the framework of the "Year of the Book", a literary meeting dedicated to the 85th anniversary of the birth of the national writer of Kazakhstan Mukhtar Magauin was held at the branch of the Research Institute of Balneology and Medical Rehabilitation of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Kazakhstan MWC Burabai. The event was led by Natalia Kim, Head of the Library at Rehabilitation Department No. 1.

The resting patients performed excerpts from the novel "Alasapyran" and the novella "Lyrical Retreat".

A pleasant surprise was the presence of Altyn Semizbayeva, a resident of Semey, who is undergoing treatment at the Burabai Medical Center. She was personally acquainted with Mukhtar Magauin, and her father, being the headmaster of the school, knew the writer from a young age. Altyn Semizbayeva shared her memories, touching the audience with warm and sincere stories about the outstanding master of the word.

Natalia Kim introduced the participants of the meeting to the biography and creative legacy of Mukhtar Magauin— a writer, historian and scientist.

The library fund of the Burabai Library has a large number of his works, including collections of novels and short stories "Bir atanyn Balalary", "Kiyandagi kystau", "Kok Kepter", a novel-dilogy "Alasapyran", an anthology of Kazakh zhyrau "Bes Gasyr zhyrlaidy", as well as collections "Snake Summer", "Death greyhound", "Blue haze".

Holding such events once again confirms that the Research Institute of Balneology and Medical Rehabilitation of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Kazakhstan cares not only about the physical health of patients, but also about their spiritual development, helping to join the rich literary and historical heritage of Kazakhstan.
