Su menh cua Cha thanh Maximiliano Kolbe
The Message of St. Maximilian Kolbe, priest. Original title in Vietnamese: Sứ mệnh của Cha thánh Maximiliano Kolbe, Giang Xâ (17.10.1982).
Van Thuân wrote this book in commemoration of the canonization of Maximilian Kolbe (17 October 1982). It was one of the last works that he wrote during his final days in the prison of Giang Xâ, before being transferred to an isolated apartment at Hoa Ma Street (Hanoi) under strict police monitoring on 5 November 1982. The book contains meditations on the life of the Saint, with particular emphasis on his devotion to the Immaculate Virgin Mary. For the most part, the book is composed of the writings of St. Maximilian Kolbe.
