The poetry collection "White clouds of mother's hair" by author Truong Anh Tu published by Kim Dong Publishing House is a collection of poems that is very close to all ages with simple yet sophisticated feelings about the surrounding objects.
The images appearing in Truong Anh Tu's poems are all familiar, profound and full of love. That is the image of a mother caring for her burning child - like caring for her precious world in the poem "Happy Dream"; or the image of a familiar winter in her hometown in the poem "Winter Tree"...
In addition to beautiful poems, "White clouds and mother's hair" is also breathed into life by the flying illustrations of young artist Quyen Thai. Known for her dreamy painting style, bright and warm colors, Quyen Thai's paintings perfectly convey the emotions of love, attachment to people, life, nature and the homeland in each poem.
Author Truong Anh Tu wrote poetry and composed music from the 90s of the last century. He has many works that have been introduced to domestic and foreign readers, is a familiar name for Vietnamese playboards, and is one of the overseas authors with the most published poetry in newspapers and magazines in Vietnam.
When talking about his compositions, poet Truong Anh Tu once shared: I never plan to write a poem for children or for adults. When writing poetry, in front of me is just a page of paper. My reader can be a child, a youth, a middle-aged person or an elderly person...
The important thing is that through a poem I can express my emotions and thoughts. I am very happy that many of my poems reach readers of all ages. And I believe that readers of all ages can find meaning, joy, and messages in those poems depending on each person's language ability and feelings."
On the occasion of the launch of the poem "White Clouds Mother's hair" and celebrating the Vietnamese Book Day, the introduction - exchange "White Cloud Mother: Opening the page - touching poem" will be held by Kim Dong Publishing House at 9:30 am on April 13 in Hanoi with the direct participation of the author - poet Truong Anh Tu.
