What reading level is Salt of the Earth book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
"My father bought it for my mother in Brussels after the battle of Waterloo. " Dear grandmamma and great-grandmamma! Brenda bid them good-bye with tender affection and regret, and wondered whether it was just the lapse of years that separated her from them. Their senti- ments were so simple, their claims on life so small, and their virtuous days so contented. She was too modern to follow them and too thoughtful to call their lives empty; for how can lives be empty that are filled to overflowing... with happiness and affection? Brenda had not made up her mind about the great problems of life with all the assurance usual to her years, but she was inclined to think that the Blue Bird cannot be bought or bullied or deceived. It comes, it goes, it eludes, it loves the rich as well as the humble, it only flutters near some natures too complex to hold it fast. She had hitherto been happy, she supposed, in a quiet everyday fashion, but was she going to be henceforward? She did not find that looking at her golden ring reassured her as completely as it did the bride in the poem, but she tried to believe that her doubts and fears were common to girls who have been snatched aloft as if by a whirlwind and then set down in the flats of life again until it is time for the whirlwind to reappear.
