Dear readers, In Pursuit of Smile - Vietnamese Love Stories (published by Thegioi Publishers in Vietnam in 2011, and reedited in 2012) is a compilation of short stories by Vietnamese famous writers who have won specific awards in literature and film; for instance, Tu Ngoc Nguyen who won the ASIAN LITERATURE AWARD 2008 with the work THE BOUNDLESS FIELD and Minh Nguyet Suong, who won the title "GOLDEN WRITER" of the Police Magazine Literature 1998-2011 and others with the story 13 LANDING POSTS which was filmed and won the award of GOLDEN LOTUS in the 16th National Film Festival 2009... Nine short stories in this compilation have their own features but there is one thing linking them: LOVE. With the wonderful talent in painting beautiful word pictures, our writers will take you on a TOUR OF LOVE OF VIETNAMESE PEOPLE through the war time to present. I hope that these stories will contribute more love to the world from Vietnam and they will make good impression on you. Thanks for your attention, Vuon Thi Le
