By comparing the two literary characters, Sister Tuong Lam in the short story Chuc phuc (Benediction) by Lu Hsun (China) and Sister Dau in the novel Tat den (Turn out the Light) by Ngo Tat To (Vietnam), the author points out the similarities and differences between these two characters based on the following aspects: the same historical context but different cultural spaces
the same personality but different significance of resistance
the same tragic life but different critical viewpoints. Then, the author comes to the conclusion that the building of images of these characters originates from the pressing problems of our times, which need to be resolved by each country, so these stories profoundly reflect the social reality.
