What reading level is Birchwood book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On the very day that the will was read, confirming his freedom, Papa sold off fifty acres to old man Gaddern of Halfmile House, who, it was rumoured, was financing the rebels in the area, partly from sympathy but mostly as a means of ensuring the safety of his portion of the new State the revolution would found. Along with other sales made on the sly while my grandfather was still alive, this latest iniquity left Birchwood crippled, with the Gaddern swine crowding us on three sides and the sea a...t our back. Papa got drunk at dinner that night, and when Granny Godkin launched her inevitable attack on him he just sat back and laughed at her, picking his teeth with a matchstick.‘Times are hard, mother, times are hard. Have another glass of wine.’‘Wine! Your father not cold in his grave and you…you…You were only waiting for him to die. Are you human at all?’‘Aye, unlike yourself, all too human. Show me your glass here, come on.’The old woman began to blubber, not very convincingly, and turned to Aunt Martha for support.
