Two Vietnamese translators Nguyen Huy Hoang and Nguyen Van Minh have collected the poems from prominent authors.
Hoang said at the launching ceremony on November 3 that “The significance of the Soviet Union’s patriotic war still resonates today. The collection reflects the brutal reality of war through Russian characters and their inner feelings. It shows the tragedy of battle, but is also magnanimous and optimistic.”
