WRITING / A SHORT STORY COLLECTION · 2021

Hồi KếtĐẹp Xinh(Happy Ending)

Beyond the set, another part of Christy’s creative work takes the form of a book. Hồi Kết Đẹp Xinh (Happy Ending) is her Vietnamese short story collection, published in November 2021.

CHAPTER 01

A story collection of her own.

Hồi Kết Đẹp Xinh is a short story collection by BAO NGOC LE CHAU. Published by Bách Việt in association with Thanh Niên Publishing House, it belongs alongside film, events and communications in her creative portfolio.

Here, the introduction begins with the book itself: its original title, its cover and the person holding it.

Her pen name is 天璃 (Tenri).

CHAPTER 02

The cover, and its author.

The original cover carries the Vietnamese title and an illustration featuring the Eiffel Tower, a bridge and a park bench. One photograph places the book among greenery; another brings the cover closer, with a heart-shaped bookmark resting on it.

In the author portrait, Christy wears a red top and holds the collection beside a decorated Christmas tree. The book and its author share the festive setting.

CHAPTER 03

The book, in different settings.

The collection also appears in a series of photographs. Against a blue shutter, the book sits beside a matching bookmark and a flower. In another image, it rests on a light surface beside a drink and a pair of glasses.

Promotional photography places the physical book in front of the Eiffel Tower, echoing a landmark already present in the cover artwork. The images offer different encounters with the same object: the cover stays recognisable while its setting changes.

CHAPTER 04

A reader’s response.

A reader-review card presents the book beside a response in Vietnamese. Bách Việt’s logo, a Santa illustration and a candy cane form part of its festive design. The review appears in its original graphic, alongside the photographs of the collection.
