What reading level is Rare Days in Japan book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The servant, in spite of their re- fusal, feigns sleep for a time, and then when his masters have fallen into a sound slumber, he steals away to the bedroom of the old woman. On the first two or three attempts, he makes so much noise as to waken the priests; but finally he succeeds in entering the room which, to his horror, he finds filled with human bones, all carefully classified! He then rushes to his masters and wakens them with the information that their hostess is really a canni- bal witc...h, and that they must escape for their lives. This advice he at once puts into practice by making good his own escape. But the flight of the priests is only symbolised by their standing perfectly mo- tionless in one corner of the stage, while the chorus eloquently recites these blood-curdling experiences.
JAPANESE MIRACLE-PLAY 207 When the witch, in her demon-like form, over- takes the ministers of the Buddhist religion, the two spiritual forces represented by the actors then on the stage enter into the same kind of conflict as that which has already been described.
