What reading level is Odd Jobs book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
225 pp. Farrar, Straus & Giroux, 1981.
In this episodic sequel to The Ghost Writer, the fledgling writer Nathan Zuckerman now struggles with the wealth, fame, intrusions, and estrangements bestowed upon him by the enormous success of his fourth novel, Carnovsky. Zuckerman’s parents, his thoroughly Jewish Newark, his discardable shiksa consorts, his pangs of guilt and impatience, his love for the classics of Western thought, and his fondness for Forties trivia may be already familiar to chronic r...eaders of Mr. Roth, who has evolved from the broad-shouldered realist of Letting Go, the frenzied fantasist of The Great American Novel, and the unbuttoned psychodramatist of Portnoy’s Complaint into something of an exquisitist, moving, in his last four novels, among his by now highly polished themes with ever more expertness and care. The comic diatribes seem almost engraved, they are so finely tuned, and the polarities between id and superego, Jew and goy, artistic honesty and human decency are as beautifully played upon as the themes in a Bach fugue.
