Bao Ninh nació en Hanoi en 1952. Durante la guerra de Vietnam sirvió en la Gloriosa 27ª Brigada Juvenil. De los quinientos miembros de la misma que fueron a la guerra en 1969, él fue uno de los diez supervivientes. El dolor de la guerra, su primera novela, ha sido un rotundo éxito de ventas en Vietnam. Ganadora de diversos premios literarios, como el que otorga The Independent a la mejor novela extranjera, Bao Ninh no pudo obtener un visado para salir de su país a recogerlos hasta cuatro años después de publicada.

Work Description

Thân phân cua tình yêu (in English: The Sorrow of War by Bao Ninh) is a novel of the Vietnamese War from the viewpoint of a North Vietnamese infantryman.

Kien’s job is to search the Jungle of Screaming Souls for corpses. He knows the area well – this was where, in the dry season of 1969, his battalion was obliterated by American napalm and helicopter gunfire. Kien was one of only ten survivors. This book is his attempt to understand the eleven years of his life he gave to a senseless war.

Based on true experiences of Bao Ninh and banned by the communist party, this novel is a sincere, unglorified account of the true sorrows of war.
