Distant Road Selected Poems of Nguyen Duy Nguyen Duy "Perhaps one of the greatest strengths of Nguyen Duy's poetry is the undercurrent of compassion that cuts through it. Whether it is love, family, war, present and lost friends, enemies, values of the past, problems of the present, or his own mocking self, his poetry is throughout informed with a heart that has long understood the scars of hardship and sufferings.
