What reading level is Bone Ash Sky book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Or at least that’s what he calls it when he explains the current situation to me. None of the rival religious or political factions can lay claim to it, not now. The city is still divided spiritually into east and west, though these days you can easily take a taxi downtown or tread the fashionable, refurbished area once known as the Green Line. At the same time there are still boundaries – emotional perhaps, unacknowledged – furrowed deep into the heart of Beirut.
The Corniche is another city in... itself. It’s the haunt of the lost, the dislocated, the in-between, the untouchables – prostitutes, hawkers, beggars, tourists, the ultra-rich. Swiss-owned luxury hotels compete for space with hovels made of cardboard and hammered tin. Construction projects pollute the sea air with concrete dust and jackhammers, resorts and high rises, tax breaks begun with the express intention of never being finished. Beiruti high society – French-educated, expansive, cruel in its vulgarity – rubs shoulders with leprous touts; Syrian labourers lounge about eating gelato after a day’s work; women accost tourists in perfect French, whores with university degrees giving everything they have of themselves.
