What reading level is A Life's Work book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Wharton herself was none of these things. She married, a marriage of class and convenience, but lived separately, estranged, and finally on a different continent from her husband. Her parents were dead. She had no children. Her right to exist derived from her wealth, inherited and then earned by her writing. Latterly she had a large collection of lapdogs, to whom she was obsessively devoted, and she found philanthropy: living in France during the First World War, she set up refuges and schools f...or orphaned children.
Lily Bart, the heroine of The House of Mirth, is an orphan. The story of her life corresponds inversely to that of Wharton’s, like the negative of a photograph. Lily’s parents died leaving her penniless. She has neither education nor talents nor training. She is very beautiful; a beauty cultivated to fetch a price by a mother who died before she could oversee the sale. Lily has been abandoned to her vanity like the hothouse flower her name suggests left out in the cold and rain.
