Picking up Flowers in the Morning and Evening (illustrated Book)
by Lu Xun
About This Novel
"Morning Blossoms Plucked at Dusk" are ten essays "copied from memory" written by Lu Xun between February and November 1926 in retrospect of the past. These essays were published one after another in the bimonthly magazine "Wangyuan", with the general title "Revisiting Old Things". When compiled into a book in 1927, it was named "Morning Blossoms Picked Up at Dusk". Regarding "Picking Up Flowers in the Morning and Dusk", Lu Xun's own explanation is: "Folding flowers with dew, the color and fragrance are naturally much better, but I can't. Even the bizarre and messy things in my mind now, I can't instantly transform them into strange and messy articles. Or, when I look up at the flowing clouds in the day, they will flash in front of my eyes." As the only collection of Lu Xun's essays, and with the nature of autobiography, this book is of great value to the study of Lu Xun.
