Set in the oppressive atmosphere of colonial-era Vietnam, The Examination Tent (originally Tắt Đèn) is a masterpiece of Vietnamese realism by Ngô Tất Tố. The story follows the harrowing journey of Sister Dậu, a resilient peasant woman pushed to the brink of despair by a brutal taxation system.

As she fights to save her family from debt and imprisonment, the narrative exposes the stark injustices of a crumbling feudal society. A poignant and powerful exploration of human endurance and maternal sacrifice, this English translation brings one of Vietnam's most significant literary works to a global audience for the first time.
