Lu Xun's 呐喊 (A Call to Arms) is a collection of short stories exploring themes of social injustice, alienation, and cannibalism (both literal and metaphorical) in early 20th-century China. The excerpts showcase the psychological turmoil of characters like the "Madman" and satirize the hypocrisy of Chinese society through stories such as "Kong Yiji" and "Medicine." Another story, "A Slight Incident," highlights a small act of kindness that contrasts sharply with prevalent societal callousness. Finally, "Tomorrow" and "The Storm" illustrate the struggles of ordinary people facing poverty and societal indifference.

鲁迅的《呐喊》是一部短篇小说集，探讨了 20 世纪初中国的社会不公、异化和吃人（既有字面意义也有隐喻意义）等主题。这些选段展示了“狂人”等人物的心理动荡，并通过《孔乙己》和《药》等故事讽刺了中国社会的虚伪。另一篇故事《小事》强调了一个小小的善举，与普遍的社会冷漠形成鲜明对比。最后，《明天》和《暴风雨》描绘了普通人面对贫困和社会冷漠的挣扎。
