What reading level is A Private View book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He sat up cautiously: not too bad. On the other hand not quite as good as usual, which was only to be expected after his intake of the previous evening. He looked back on the occasion with amazement: what on earth had possessed him to arrange it? At least he had refused to prolong it; that was one thing saved. But perhaps this too was cause for concern, that he had turned down an opportunity to do what any other man would have done, and by his very action, or lack of it, had confirmed his status... as cautiously respectable bachelor, near celibate, and hopeless recluse.
The incident worried him, not, he thought, because he had in any sense desired the girl, but because he despaired of himself. He realised that had he not been aware of Mrs Lydiard’s implicit disapproval he would have invited the girl into his flat, not to make love to her, but to find out more about her. She had stimulated his near professional curiosity; he doubted that she was altogether above board. He retained, for closer inspection, the undoubtedly expensive black silk outfit, toted across continents in a cheap nylon holdall, ready for a fortuitous meeting with a man, even a man as unpromising as himself.
