        Born in 1881 to a wealthy family,Lu Xun had a happy childhood. In 1893,however,his grandfather,a senior government official, was put into prison for taking money.At the same time,his father became seriously ill. From that time on,his family were no longer accepted by their relatives and friends. These early experiences greatly influenced his writing.

There,he began writing articles for several Chinese student magazines. He showed a gift for writing and translating and he even wrote several books,although none was popular.

It was the first Chinese novel published using the everyday language that people spoke,which helped make it a great success. This,together with his novel The True Story of Ah Q(1921) , made Lu Xun a leading Chinese writer.

For this,the government stopped him from publishing any more books. He was forced to write his articles using false names.
