Lu Xun's first collection, with A Madman's Diary, Kong Yiji and The True Story of Ah Q, stories that more or less began modern Chinese fiction. In a few pages each he catches a village, a tavern or a crowd with uncomfortable precision, and his irony is never far from grief. The Open Stacks hold four of the stories in full.
