What reading level is Quicksands of Youth book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Now I am doubtful whether any offense at all has been committed. " "Some of it is quite true, and some of it isn't, " answered Leo with deliberation. Then, with a sudden change of manner, he cried out: "Oh, I knew I was going to be arrested. I ex- pected that. If you fine me, I will pay my fine; but I'm going to do it again. I am going to be arrested a hundred times before I am twenty-one. I am a Socialist, and I suppose I've got to suffer for it. You can't get fair treatment in America !" Thes...e words, coming from a boy of fifteen, were rather startling, to say the least. In giving them utterance he had insensibly trans- formed the whole aspect of the case. What had appeared at first to be a commonplace matter involving a trivial violation of a city ordinance, in the twinkling of an eye and with dramatic suddenness, became a thing of tre- mendous importance. Invisible before, I now could see shadowy, sinister figures lurking around the boy and inflaming his imagination. Misunderstanding, revolt, and hatred seemed to stand out suddenly as vital forces and to grip him in their cruel clutches.
