Name recognition question

muckefuckAre any of you familiar with a literary author named "Lu Xun/Lu Hsün"?
I was trying to explain to a friend the other day who Premchand was and I tried to save time by describing him as "like Lu Xun but for Hindi". Unfortunately, this shorthand meant nothing to him and was left wondering if there was a more salient example I could've chosen.
