Diary of a Madman
by Lu Xun
About This Novel
This book contains fourteen classic short stories by Lu Xun. In "Diary of a Madman", Lu Xun put his nascent vernacular prose on paper, creating a precedent for modern vernacular novels. The melancholy, suspicion, panic, and delusion of the "madman's" thoughts are still connected with the emotions of readers to this day. The "madman's" questions have also passed through the time and space barriers of a hundred years and echo today - "It has always been like this, is it right?" "Lu Xun is a person who is constantly communicating with the times. A popular person, he has been touching the most sensitive nerves of the times." From his characters such as "Madman", Hua Laoshuan, Chen Cheng, Zijun and Juansheng, we get a glimpse of the wandering between light and dark, the boredom under the passion, and at the same time, we get a glimpse of our own life and death love.
