What reading level is Fabian Essays in Socialism book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


immoral to steal or to defraud. Only in very extreme cases do we account these pursuits as evidences of mania ; for though in- justice and dishonesty are incompatible with the health of society, and thus actually unreasonable and indirectly suicidal, the desires which prompt men to them are only at worst exaggera- tions of the desire for wealth or subsistence, which everyone re- cognizes as a necessary condition of the mere continuance of life.

...bsistence, many consider that neither are immoral. At the other extreme, when the instinct prompts aggression in defiance of the conscious reason and without assignable purpose of gain, when Jean Val- jean robs the little Savoyard, or a noble earl pockets the sugar- tongs, we speak of mental aberration or of kleptomania.
