These are the ones I have read, but there a one or two others too. These ones are both novels & aren't the best written accounts in history (a bit clunky, hard to know if it is an original problem or the translation across cultures), but both are short reads.
'The Sorrow of War' by Bao Ninh - originally banned in Vietnam.

'Novel Without a Name' by Duong Thu Huong - the author has been jailed for her opposition to the regime in Hanoi & her books are not published in Vietnam. I gave this to a Vietnamese friend who was studying in Australia. She loved it.
