Auszeichnungen
Since its publication in the early nineteenth century, this long narrative poem has stood unchallenged as the supreme masterpiece of Vietnamese literature. Thông's new and absorbingly readable translation (on pages facing the Vietnamese text) is illuminated by notes that give comparative passages from the Chinese novel on which the poem was based, details on Chinese allusions, and literal translations with background information explaining Vietnamese proverbs and folk sayings.

Be warned, it gets very sad and depressing...
It is a story of two lives, of the tragic story of a woman of Confucian virtue who is sold into slavery to save her family but who never gives up her true love and as a metaphor for the author, Nguyen Du's, wounded patriotism after being forced to collaborate with the administration of a new dynasty to save his family.
This version provides both the Vietnamese and the English text on facing pages.
