What reading level is Mosquito book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Elaine Scarry writes in The Body in Pain, her brilliant examination of the intersection of suffering, language, and power, “does not simply resist language but actively destroys it, bringing about an immediate reversion to a state anterior to language, to the sounds and cries a human being makes before language is learned.”
How does pain erase speech? First, of course, because the one doing the hurting is too englobed in the experience of hurt to make any words: hit your thumb with a hammer and ...it’s as if the bone-deep intensity of that experience hijacks all energy from the mind; nothing can be seen or felt but the throbbing, blinding “this-ness” of that experience. As if there were nothing in the world but ache.
Throbbing, blinding, ache: the relative paucity of the words themselves point to the second reason why pain eludes the saying. We don’t have the vocabulary for it. English, which has an endless supply of terms for, say, getting drunk, offers the barest scraps to help us name the way we’re ailing.
