Two Vietnamese Works of Fiction: A Focus on the Impact of Conflict. This paper compares and contrasts many of the qualities found in the stories "The Tale of Kieu" by Nguyen Du, and "The Sorrow of War" by Bao Ninh. These two remarkable tales are Vietnamese in origin and therefore are believed to demonstrate many similar characteristics that mark the Vietnamese culture. These characteristics are examined within this paper in order to demonstrate that, although the themes of these two works are remarkably different, they both demonstrate the qualities of the Vietnamese people during periods of conflict. 10 pgs.
