Nghi Xuan District’s Cultural Centre has discovered a collection of 70 books written about Vietnamese writer Nguyen Du in Vinh City, Nghe An Province last week.
The books are also about the Nguyen Tien Dien lineage, whose descendants passed the books on over generations.
These books stand to shed light on the relatively secluded life of Nguyen Du and his lineage, said Nguyen Hai Nam, director of Nghi Xuan District’s Culture Centre.
This series of books also features a Tale of Kieu (hand-written book, documents on hat tro Kieu in Tien Dien Village and a medical book by this famous lineage.
Those books are being held at Nam’s private home and may be brought to Nguyen Du Museum in Nghi Xuan District in the near future.
