"The world is longer than human footsteps" is a collection of essays by Ho Anh Thai on contemporary life, culture, and art phenomena. Under the writer's sharp and mischievous gaze, there are things that seem small but not small, and there are things that seem vain but persistent. From the narcissism of an old man applying for a visa to go abroad, the awkwardness in a few "mischievous" ways spoken every day, to the bumpy road of literature and cinema in the country reaching out to the world, all are imbued with the reflections and concerns of a writer who loves his profession and people."The gian dai hon buoc chan nguoi" la tap tieu luan cua Ho Anh Thai ve cac hien tuong đoi song, van hoa, nghe thuat đuong đai.
