From Manzi:
Manzi and Nhã Nam are delighted to invite you to the second talk of our series on ‘Publishing in Vietnam’
Neither aim to present a concise overview nor to conduct any comprehensive analysis/ in-depth research into Vietnamese publishing industry, we launch this series of talks in the hope that it could offer a great chance for Vietnamese audience to discuss and uncover much further the social and cultural life of the country at different periods of time.
At the talk, the best-selling author & self-publishing pioneer Nguyễn Thị Hoàng will share with the audience her own memories and never-told stories about the flourishing publishing industry in the South Vietnam prior to 1975, which sank into oblivion by the flow and thrust of history. The event will be led by moderator Nguyen Xuan Minh from Nha Nam Publishing House.
Please note that the talk will be conducted in Vietnamese only.
About the speakers:
