What reading level is Burial Rites book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
‘WHAT HAPPENED THEN?’ TÓTI ASKED. He realised that he had hardly breathed during Agnes’s story.
‘It’s strange,’ Agnes said, using her little finger to wind the wool about the needle head. ‘Most of the time when I think of when I was younger, everything is unclear. As though I were looking at things through smoked glass. But Inga’s death, and everything that came after it . . . I almost feel that it was yesterday.’ Across the room, a chair scraped. Margrét gave a muffled cough.
‘I remember that ...after Inga died Jón was sent to fetch Björn’s relatives,’ Agnes continued. ‘I can remember lying in my bed, watching my foster-father sit on the stool Inga had used for her spindle work. He was too big for its seat. Kjartan was in bed with me, and he was sleeping all hot and heavy on my shoulder. The wind had dropped and it was suddenly very quiet.
‘We eventually heard the clink of harness from the yard outside. Then Björn slowly rose to his feet and stepped towards my bed.

Excellent book, the description brings you there, your heart goes out to Agnes! Couldn't put it down until the very end with tears in my eyes

Not usually given, to read books of either history or death, I was apprehensive about reading this book. Yet, I could not put it down. Hannah Kent's use of the written language, is a pleasure to read. It made me feel as though I'd been absorbed into the weave of old Icelantic folklore and history. Also it has been the first book I've read on line and for free. I was amazed at how simple that process has been. Well done and thank you.Only one very small issue. I actually read this book over the Internet but didn't download it. Whether this is the cause of the issue I had, I don't know but although I read the book in pages rather than one continuous stream, I had no idea of how many pages made up the book so was never sure of when it would come to a close.
