What reading level is Letters to X book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Actual realism that is to say must always diverge from true art. It is not enough to make a transcript, however exact and methodical, of human character or natural objects. The personality of the artist is not enough ; the themes appropriate to his instruments and purpose are not enough. A something objective, abso- lute, infinite enters into the composition of the greatest works of art, and in gusts and flickers even into the lesser. Only the perfect combination of the various perceptions and ...ferments that go to make the unity of a work of art can make it shall I say a microcosm of reality. But in the accomplishment, it has passed out of the hands of the artist. He is the instrument and not the creator. No contradiction is involved by the admission that the personality of the artist is still implicit and perceptible in the culmination of his work. Keats' " Oft have I travelled in the realms of gold, " Shelley's " I met a traveller in an antique land " both attain that consum- mation ; there is a similarity of sound between them over and beyond word identities.
