What reading level is Afterlife book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On the whole, this is probably a fair assumption. But it can blind me to some important differences between myself and my fellow human beings.
When Charles Darwin arrived in Tierra del Fuego on the Beagle in December 1832, he was astounded that the natives were such excellent mimics. Although they knew no English, they could repeat a whole sentence with a good English accent. Moreover, they could join in sea shanties as they sat round the fire with the crew of the Beagle, by the simple exped...ient of repeating each word a moment after the English sailors had sung it. (Darwin said ‘the manner in which they were invariably a little behindhand was quite ludicrous’.) Darwin was baffled. ‘How can this faculty be explained?’ he asked. ‘Is it a consequence of the more practised habits of perception and keener senses, common to all men in a savage state, as compared with those long civilised?’ He is on the right track; but his essentially English habits of thought make him incapable of going to the heart of the matter.
