![[Podcast] Renovation Generation: The Life of a Nonsensical Poet](https://media.urbanistnetwork.com/saigoneer/article-images/legacy/Jx7ssqXb.jpg)
The sonic portraits of Hanoi's Renovation Generation continue this week with the podcast's tenth episode, featuring cafe owner and poet Nam Lu.
In the podcast Lu, who runs two book-filled cafes in the capital and published his first collection of poetry last year, talks about what it means to be a “nonsensical poet” and a collector of old things, being a black sheep in his family and his struggle to find a purpose in life.
Set to an eerie soundtrack, some might find parts of Lu's frank discussion upsetting, however his thoughts and experiences afford listeners yet another perspective from Vietnam's post-Đổi Mới renovation generation.
