What reading level is A Brutal Chill in August: a Novel of Polly Nichols, the First Victim of Jack the Ripper book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Polly looked for a position of employment, but found nothing. They sold and pawned what possessions they could, and earned enough to pay for the room for another month. Polly spoke to her father about where to find piece work.
“I’ve not looked for such in many years,” he said. “Go where goods are manufactured and ask what work they might send you home with.”
Polly found work finishing shirts for a penny, ha’penny each for the Ellis Shirt Manufacturers in Clandon Street. She finished the collar, ...cuffs, button holes, hemmed the shirt tail, and applied the buttons to complete a shirt. Each one took her over an hour. She needed to make thirteen shillings a week.
“I work fifteen hours a day,” she told Tom, “and you drink it away. You must find work!”
“I’ll go out to look every day,” he said.
Each afternoon, he left the room for several hours, yet he always returned drunk and without a job. Polly assumed that he either drank the time away or that he looked for work while intoxicated and, of course, got no good results.
