National Poetry Day of Vietnam
March 2, 2010
Jen was the first foreigner to be asked to participate in Vietnam’s annual National Poetry Day. One of her poems was translated into Vietnamese. She read it in English and her writer friend read it in Vietnamese to a crowd of 2,000 at the Temple of Literature (the oldest university in Vietnam). It received a great response! Afterward, she was photographed and interviewed like a movie star.
She did a great job and I’m very proud of her!
