Poet becomes publishing phenomenon

HCM City-based poet Nguyễn Phong Việt has become a publishing phenomenon after selling a total of 120,000 copies of poetry collections

Culture Vulture ( 18-12-2013) Young, amateur poet Nguyen Phong Viet has released his second collection of poems Tu Yeu Den Thuong (To Love and Cherish) on Sunday, with sales expecting to reach over 30,000 copies by Christmas – similar to the volume of his previous collection. He is regarded by local media as a phenomenon as readers seem to be less interested in poetry today, and the number of collections sold each year generally stands at around 1,000. Viet – the content manager of a website specialised in cinema – spoke to Culture Vulture.

Young poet's debut book becomes surprise bestseller Young poet Nguyen Phong Viet never imagined that his debut poetry collection would cause much of a stir following its publication late last December.
