On June 8, speaking with Lao Dong reporter, the National Political Publishing House Truth said that this agency has just published the book "Bon chi thien" (S Scenario Series) by Prof. Dr. Ta Ngoc Tan - a veteran journalist of the press - with many skits based on stories and incidents that have been widely published in the media, from the author's perspective has brought readers many things to reflect on, such as warnings and reminders with the desire for our society to have more and more better things, our lives are increasingly clearer and happier.
The book includes 94 press skits by the author written and published in newspapers over the past 6 years (2019 - 2024), arranged in order of the time of writing, each skits is an issue that is of public interest and monitoring at the time of writing the article but is still full of current events and has long-term significance.
Each article is a " bullet" warning about a prominent problem in society, from seemingly small things in everyday life to big, complicated cases that cause public outrage. Under flexible pens and profound writing, stories that have been published in the press are examined from a new, sharp, settling and humane perspective.
The highlight of the book is the combination of critical prose and familiar everyday language. Sometimes the author plays the narrator, sometimes transforms into two fictional characters "Pho Nho" and "Ca Nhan", a unique creation that makes the painful problems become vivid, approachable and no less profound.
Through skits such as Experience, 10 fat water, Sin - give, Institial congestion or Stream, Fake news is war, readers realized that the problems that seemed to have been mentioned too much are still very hot, because they have not been thoroughly handled.
At the same time, the author does not forget to spread positive and humane values through articles such as "The Real Color wheel", "Mothers set an example of kindness", or "Cold Heart", as a way to emphasize that, no matter how society changes, kindness still exists and needs to be strongly encouraged.
Without long-term arguments or complicated evidence, each skits in "Shooting for the sky" are like an alarm shot, awakening social feelings, arousing the spirit of citizen responsibility.
"Shooting only a sky" is not simply a book, but a flow of positive criticism, a raised arm instead of just pointing out, towards a more transparent, fair and humane society. Reading to review yourself, to understand people, to nurture the desire to build a healthy living environment, that is the profound practical value that this book brings.
