In 1975, Cardinal Francis Xavier Nguyen Van Thuan was arrested by the Communist government of Vietnam and imprisoned for thirteen years, nine of them in solitary confinement, and finally exile from Vietnam in 1991. He continued to proclaim the gospel of peace and freedom, justice and human dignity until his death in 2002. Destined to become contemporary classics, Van Thuan’s writings have inspired hope in millions. His best selling works include Testimony of Hope and The Road of Hope.
