What reading level is Rudyard Kipling a Critical Study book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Kipling, the greatest in his own par- ticular art that English literature has produced, should yet have been tempted to try his mettle in a field that did not suit nearly so well his peculiar powers, and where he had to meet and bear comparison with rivals infinitely more redoubtable. He has not been entirely successful. He has written four long books, 151 RUDYARD KIPLING one of them with a collaborator. Of these the first three, all interesting, all good stories well told, have added nothing t...o his fame, and will take a place when his work is tried by posterity far below the best of the Jungle Books, Life's Handicap and The Day's Work. In the last he has justified his ambition, and produced one of the finest novels that has appeared since the beginning of this century. ^ The Light that Failed has been much abused, and has merited some of the abuse. It is raw, uncomely, and "unpleasant" in the sense that hardly one of its characters is sympathetic. The Athenaeum declared of it, " it is an organic whole — a book with a backbone — and stands out boldly among the nerveless, flaccid, in- vertebrate things called novels that enjoy an expensive, but ephemeral existence in the circulating libraries.
