‘Con Da Ve Nha’ (I’m Home), a collection of sketches by Nguyen Tang Quang during his quarantine time in Ho Chi Minh City, has recently been published by the Women Publishing House.


The cover of the book


Quang is an overseas Vietnamese student who returned to Vietnam from the UK on March 17 and was quarantined at the Military School Zone 7, District 12, Ho Chi Minh City. He has since left quarantine.

‘I’m Home’ groups 16 drawings sketched by Quang during his spare time in the isolation area as a way to create his own diary of the memorable moments there.

Earlier, the series of sketches was shared on social network and received enthusiastic welcome from Facebook users.

The bilingual book also included articles penned by Vietnamese students who returned home from abroad after the outbreak of COVID-19 in their host countries.

The Women Publishing House will donate part of the revenue from the sale of book to a fund for disadvantaged women whose lives are affected by the COVID-19.
