What reading level is Literary Reviews And Criticisms book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Some wit has lik- ened it to the couple of dry sticks which a savage rubs together in hopes of striking a spark. Even its clarity has come to be a reproach. But none the less has our scorn of it cost us a literary genre which we can hardly afford to be without. To the expression of a certain kind of wisdom — not altogether unworldly, perhaps, and yet by no means destitute of seriousness and elevation — a composition of pathos, satire, and humour, of the pity and the folly of life, in varying pr...opor- tions, there is no verse so well adapted. That such a poetry — a poetry of which Pope's Epistle to Dr. Arbuthnot is an excellent example — no longer exists in English is probably due to the gradual deformation of the couplet. For just as Dryden misjudged and despised blank verse because he knew it as a living species only in a corrupt and degraded shape, so we, as though in revenge, have mutilated the couplet until its powers are no longer recognisable, and biting off our nose to spite our face, have lost the use of one at least of our literary senses.
