Collected by Zhou Zuoren: Lu Xun's Youth
by Zhou Zuoren
About This Novel
Zhou Zuoren, the second brother of Lu Xun, is an encyclopedic figure in the history of modern Chinese literature and one of the people who knows Lu Xun best. "Lu Xun's Youth" is a collection of commemorative texts written by Zhitang at the invitation of newspapers and magazines on the 20th anniversary of Lu Xun's death. It is another kind of work about Lu Xun after "Lu Xun's Hometown" and "Characters in Lu Xun's Novels". On the basis of the former, it adds new facts and more systematically introduces Lu Xun's early life, cultural interests, and the foundation of his thoughts. Different from many one-sided and conceptual works that deified Lu Xun at that time, Zhitang particularly emphasized the "human" side of Lu Xun, such as "Lu Xun's Smile" and "Lu Xun and His Brothers", which allow us to see the "angry" but "amiable" Lu Xun.
