What reading level is Hours With the Lonely book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
No well-used talent have they to show ; no meek goodness that makes earth a garden round them : but they have money.
They can live as lazy as they please. They can waste as much of Heaven's bounty as they will.
They can sweep the streets with velvet, and bit their horses with silver ; yea, they can oppress the poor ; the widow shall tremble be- fore them, and before the car of their great Jug- gernaut, wealth, orphans shall lie in sackcloth.
Are they not, then, mighty ? Ought not the company to... feel a thrill of terror or pleasure, or 50 HOURS WITH THE LONELY.
some strange sensation, when they enter? and when they smile, should it not be reflected in the faces, the answering smile, of all present ?
Yes ; all but yonder honest man. He looks for something more than wealth can purchase, — something within the glitter of outside show. He is possessed of the richer treasure of a thinking mind, a feeling heart ; and he barters not these for the great man's gold.
No : they are reserved for the good, the gifted, and the poor, who, stripped of earth's treasures, are yet Nature's true nobility ; and one kind word from that sincere and truly noble heart is worth more than the wealth of Golconda.
