What reading level is Empire Dreams book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The ultras are gone and I am alone with the gulls and the ashes and the wind, the wind that blows out of the heart of Africa. The old, red, crazy wind blowing from the ancient heart of man. That is why the people fear it. It shakes out the ghosts and the old, old things that we tell ourselves we have forgotten, the crazy wind.
Seagulls and ashes. The wind fans the embers into a red glow.
Blessed craziness. They have a word for it in Arabic. They have a word for everything in Arabic, and every wo...rd has four meanings; one true, one contrary, one holy, one obscene.
And which had Hannah Tellender been?
All. None. A woman. An ultra.
And this flatlifer, alone in the dawnlight on the uttermost edge of Africa, crouching by the embers with the wind whipping the ashes up into his eyes and his mouth? We were, in the end as in the beginning, more than strangers. Aliens. Ultra and flatlifer. Lovers. Ashes.
* * * * Strange. To begin one woman’s story I must go back to another. To Ruthie and the night she took me to the Rififi Club to see Hannah perform.
