What reading level is Henrik Ibsens Terje Viken book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was at that time, even to a greater extent than now, very difficult for Norway to supply her own population with bread ; she was obliged to import a great deal of grain from Denmark, and especially Jutland. After the bombardment of Copenhagen all this intercourse with Denmark was cut off, and the British controlled all the waterways leading from Nor- way to other countries. Almost unhindered the Eng- lish ruled the North Sea, capturing and destroying all 24 TERJE VIKEN Norwegian merchantmen ...which they happened to come across. They almost rendered impossible all seafaring and thus also hampered all importation to Norway. This occasioned keen distress in the years following 1807, because crop failures and years of scarcity visited the land. When seafaring, exportation of lumber and for- eign trade ceased, hard times followed. The events which this poem relates happened during these years of hardship and gloom. The main char- acter of this story is scarcely known elsewhere. He is decidedly a Norse type, but many of the happenings of this narrative are related elsewhere, so that the poem in the main is historically true.
