Features: This book collects dozens of classic works by Lu Xun, including "The True Story of Ah Q," "Kong Yiji," "The Diary of a Madman," and "Medicine." With his exceptional artistic language, rigorous realist techniques, lifelike artistic images, and ingenious artistic composition, Lu Xun revealed profound social issues and captured an entire era. "There is blood, tears, humiliation and groans, oppression and cries"—this is an indispensable classic collection! On January 13, 1936, the Japanese caricaturist Horio Junichi drew a portrait of Lu Xun in Shanghai and inscribed on the back: "With extraordinary ambition and a great heart, he embodied the character of an entire generation." That same day, Lu Xun recorded in his diary: "Afternoon, went to the Nishiyama Bookstore, met Horio Junichi, who drew a caricature portrait for me, valued at two yuan."
