"Ủ một miền thơm" is a "quiet book" written about the life experiences of a person past forty, a person who claims to have "began his own journey" for several years. Giving up the life of a veteran freelance journalist and writer (he started writing in 1994), to live a much simpler life, he calls it the waking life. He began to meditate and study translate. His name is Vu Thuong.
Those are gentle, sweet and full of sounds of life and nature, like the confession of a man in his forties, who has passed through the storms of life and started his journey to find himself. Nostalgia for the "fragrance" of the past, reflections on "life wounds" that have healed, contemplations and reflections on six missed deaths-near-death moments, conclusions about relationships of each person to himself, thereby Incubating a Fragrant Region for his life to be peaceful, gentle, pain relief, suffering, it is truly a "quiet time" for those who hold the book in their hands.
