What reading level is Interludes : Being Two Essays, a Story, And Some Verses book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As he had not profited by the experience of life, so he had not been contaminated by it. He was moral, chiefly in a negative sense, and was not inclined to irreligion. The faith of his parents sat, perhaps, uncomfortably upon him ; and he had not sufficient strength of mind to adopt a new pattern. He was in short an amiable mathematician, and a feeble classic ; and I think that is all that could be said of him with any certainty. There seemed to be an absence of character which might be called ...character- istic, and a feebleness of will so absolute as to disarm contempt.
A portion of Porkington's hard earned gains was trans- mitted regularly to his two aged parents, while he him- self,, partly from habit and partly from indifference, lived as frugally as possible.
" Bless me I " cried Mrs. Porkington, within six months of her marriage, "To think that you should have squandered such large sums of money upon people who seem to have got on very well without them." "My dear,*' replied he, "they are very poor, and in want of many comforts." " Of course I am sorry they cannot have them now," retorted she, " and it is therefore a pity they ever should have had them." Porkington sighed slightly, but had already learned not to contend, if he could remember not to do so.
