Considered a masterpiece, this story was written in 1921, and is set in the China of 1911: the period of the old-democratic revolution. It concerns the tragedy of Ah Q, a farm laborer who suffers a lifetime of humiliation and persecution, dreams of revolution, and ends up on the execution ground. The story colorfully reflects the rural conditions in semi-feudal and semi-colonial China, and brings to life the time's sharp class contradictions and the peasant masses' demand for revolution. Its simplicity and directness of style, and the beauty of Lu Hsun's language, place The True Story of Ah Q high among literary works of the time for both content and style.

La verdadera historia de A Q narra las andanzas, aventuras y desventuras de un pícaro sin recursos en la China de comienzos del siglo XX, hasta que es ejecutado por un crimen que ni siquiera ha cometido. Así descrito podría pensarse que el argumento de la obra es banal y desprovisto de fuerza… y se estaría en lo cierto. De eso se trata precisamente.

La ambigüedad, la falta de concreción, que rodea como una neblina espesa toda la obra, permite al autor un mayor margen de movimiento. Quizá esto sea precisamente lo más moderno de la narración: su capacidad de hablar al lector presente. Su vigencia tras el paso del tiempo. Eso es lo que distingue a los grandes clásicos. Lu Xun ya lo es.
