Features: The editors of this book, Cai Shengzeng and Zheng Zhi, were colleagues of mine during my time teaching at Beijing Lu Xun High School and working at the Beijing Lu Xun Museum. Over the years, they have made significant contributions in their respective roles to popularizing Lu Xun's works and promoting his legacy. The publication of this book marks their second collaboration. They are like Wei Suoyuan as depicted by Lu Xun—not the beautiful flowers of a renowned garden nor the pointed roofs of high towers, but merely a stone from the downstairs and a clump of soil in the garden. Yet the grand buildings of Lu Xun's legacy could achieve today's brilliance only through the silent and selfless dedication of laborers like them.
