About This Novel

"The Scream" is Lu Xun's long-famous collection of novels. It is the pioneer and most important work of modern Chinese novels. It collects fourteen novels written from 1918 to 1922, including his representative articles "Diary of a Madman", "Kong Yiji", "Medicine", "The True Story of Ah Q", "Hometown", "Social Opera", etc. The first edition has been a best-seller for nearly a hundred years and has far-reaching influence. Many articles have been included in Chinese language textbooks for primary and secondary schools and colleges and universities. Before Lu Xun, there were no works in the history of Chinese novels that truly portrayed the image of farmers. Lu Xun's true feelings were always devoted to the farmers, but he focused more on exploring the mental disability of the farmers in old China and the servility in the national character. The short story collection "The Scream" was born under the background of the May Fourth Movement and the New Culture Movement. It is not only a banner of the New Culture Movement, but also a powerful declaration of Lu Xun's war against the old feudal ethics and old ideas.
