Origin

"The Endless Field" was written in 2006 by Nguyen Ngoc Tu and became a controversial short story at once. BHD (Hãng phim Việt) bought its copyright at a reasonable price. "The Endless Field" was made into the Vietnamese feature film Floating Lives in 2010.

The English translation appears in a collection of NNT short stories titled Floating Lives. The translator is Luu ThanhThuy and the publisher is ASEAN (2013).
