What reading level is François Rabelais book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

In every town that he visited, he marked with an observant eye its buildings and other noteworthy objects.
During that wonderful period of rejuve- nescence of human energy which we call the Renaissance, there were many men who sur- passed Rabelais in the variety of their artistic achievements, there were some who were superior to him in scientific knowledge, there were possibly a few who rivalled him in the knowledge of books; but in the combination of both literary and scientific knowledge wit
...h artistic achievement it would be difficult to find his equal.
123 CHAPTER V GARGANTUA There was until recent years considerable discussion as to whether the character of Gar- gantua was invented by Rabelais, or whether he already existed in popular tradition. But the occurrence of the name in a document of 1470 conclusively proves his prior existence.
M. S6billot's researches into the folklore on the subject point to the same conclusion; for, while stories relating to Gargantua are com- paratively rare in Toiiraine, Anjou, and Poitou, where Rabelais's younger days were spent, they are most plentiful in Brittany, which appar- ently he did not visit till a later period of his life.
