  Recognized as modern China's preeminent man of letters, Lu Xun (1881--1936) is revered as the nation's conscience, a writer comparable to Shakespeare or Tolstoy. Gloria Davies's vivid portrait gives readers a better sense of this influential author by situating the man Mao Zedong hailed as the sage of modern China in his turbulent time and place.
