Summary of thesis results: Our thesis focuses on clarifying three main issues in Nguyen Binh Phuong's novelistic art: characters, space-time construction, and narrative art. Regarding characters, we find that Nguyen Binh Phuong is particularly successful with characters such as absent characters, insane characters, and crowd characters. Through the techniques of fantasticalizing and erasing characters, Nguyen Binh Phuong creates a vivid, realistic, yet unique world of characters. Without overly focusing on character personality, Nguyen Binh Phuong constructs characters with some influence from the early 20th-century novels of famous writers such as F. Kafka and A. Camus… Regarding space-time construction, Nguyen Binh Phuong demonstrates a multi-dimensional view of the world. He uses real space-time to reflect the fantastical nature of space-time. The study constructs a psychological and spiritual space-time to reflect the complex pluralism of life. This demonstrates Nguyen Binh Phuong's distinctly Eastern perspective combined with modern Western writing style. Regarding the art of storytelling, we study two major areas: plot organization and the narrator. The plot organization reveals the fragmentation and complexity of storylines, and the influence of various genres on the novel. The narrator in Nguyen Binh Phuong's novels is diverse, with flexible shifts in perspective and a detached, colorless narrative tone. Through this thesis, we see that Nguyen Binh Phuong has made positive innovations contributing to the development of Vietnamese novels in the early 21st century. 11. Practical application: None 12. Further research directions: Approaching the art of novels in the early 21st century, Artistic characteristics in Nguyen Binh Phuong's works (poetry, short stories, and novels) 13.

Summary of the findings of the thesis: Our thesis clarifies three major problems in Nguyen Binh Phuong's the art of novel including characters, space and time building, the art of story telling. In the aspect of the characters, we find that Nguyen Binh Phuong really succeeds in the characters such as absent characters, crazy ones and groups of characters. By the method of making the characters miraculous, eliminating the characters, Nguyen Binh Phuong creates a vivid, truthful but special character world.Without paying attention to the characters' personalities very much, Nguyen Binh Phuong builds the characters who have a bit influence from the novels of famous writers in the early 20th century, for instance F.Kafka, A.Camus... In the aspect of space and time building, Nguyen Binh Phuong expresses his point of view about different aspects of the world. Using practical space and time is to reflect the miraculous essence of space and time .Building space –psychological time is to reflect the diversity and complexity of the life. From there, it is clear that Nguyen Binh Phuong has the oriental view with the mixture of the modern Western penmanship. In the aspect of the art of story telling, we study two major matters: the organization of the story plot and story teller. The organization of the story plot shows the complexity and disintegration of the story plots, the penetration of different types into the novels. And the story teller in the novels, Nguyen Binh Phuong changes the roles of the characters flexibly with subjective statement tones. Through this thesis, we find that Nguyen Binh Phuong has positive changes which contribute to the development of Vietnamese novels in the early 21st century. 11. Practical applicability, if any: 12. Further research directions, if any: Approaching the art of novel in the early 21st century. Features art in the Nguyen Binh Phuong's composing (poetry, short stories and novels). 13.
