Poetic Obituaries: At the age of 15, Te Hanh went

to study in Hue where he met and discussed poetry with the Tho Moi group of poets. He became a member of the movement which led to a golden age for Vietnamese poetry. Hanh's contribution to the movement was considerable, and many of his poems are still popular today. His most famous works include Nhung Ngay Nghi Hoc (Out-of-School Days) and Que Huong (In My Village).
