Dear friends,

 

On Saturday November 17 I am holding my final Vietnamese American Authors Book Fair. 

 

It is scheduled at ViVo, (Vietnamese Voluntary Foundation, Inc.) 2260 Quimby Road, San Jose 95122 from 1 to 5 p.m.

 

The Internet Bookselling Collection of books by Vietnamese American authors are listed on the attached order form.  They may be ordered by mail as well as at the event at ViVo on November 17.  The collection is also featured online at www.atozproductions.com/Vietnamese_Titles.html .

 

There will be a Vietnamese language literary program of readings of the work of Nguyen Chi Thien beginning at 2 p.m.  This is followed by a major speech by the author Nguyen Chi Thien about Human Rights in Vietnam Today, which will begin after 3 p.m.  The readings and Mr. Thien's speech are in Vietnamese language which will be briefly translated. 

 

Please join me in honoring the author with his new work published by Yale University Council on Southeast Asia Studies, the Hoa Lo/Hanoi Hilton Stories.  This is English translation of the original Vietnamese Hoa Lo published by Nguyen Ngoc Bich in 2001.  Mr. Bich is one of the volunteer translators.  The others are journalist Saroyan Vann Phan, Tran Van Dien (the father of Assemblyman Van Tran of Garden Grove), and Nguyen Kiem Phong of Canada

 

Both hardback and paper editions will be available for signing by the author.

 

 

Sincerely,

 

Jean Libby
