About this ebook
Told in two tongues, this haunting narrative immerses you in the split consciousness of those living under the weight of a gilded, watchful power. Over ten years that measure a reign, a ritual, and a ruin, it maps a harrowing descent into choices made not in freedom, but in the stark silence of a locked room.
Follow characters defined by the colors they wear—blue, green, pale yellow—and the invisible scripts of power that decide their fate. This is a tale of memory that clings like a ghost, and the terrifying courage required to forget just to survive another hour, another day.
Moving restlessly between the stark clarity of instruction and the chaotic nightmare of its execution, this mirrored labyrinth of a novel explores the ornate cages we build, the silent selections we face, and the true nature of the monsters we should fear.
Step into this chilling, dual-language arena. Will you find your way back out?

About the author
NGUYEN THI NGUYET is a literary architect of haunting, multi-layered worlds. Her work delves into the fractures of identity, the silent mechanics of power, and the psychological landscapes of survival. With a background that informs a deep fascination with linguistic duality and cultural dislocation, she crafts narratives that exist in the gap between word and echo, rule and its grotesque enforcement.
In her EN–HU series, Nguyen Thi Nguyet employs a unique dual-language format not merely as a device, but as the very breath of the story, creating an immersive and disorienting experience that challenges and engages the reader on a profound level. She draws inspiration from the stark traditions of folktales and gothic bureaucracy, weaving them into contemporary tales that feel both timeless and urgently modern.
When not writing, she is often found navigating the unsettling halls of her own imagination. [Book Title] is a testament to her vision of fiction as a mirrored labyrinth, designed to provoke the chill of recognition and the relief of emerging, changed, on the other side.
