What reading level is The Bridge of Sighs book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When Emil turned down the long, poplar- lined drive, he couldn’t see the house. Then, from behind a grassy rise, there was a bearded peasant swinging a scythe a few inches above the earth. Then the house. It spread wide and high, a long porch wrapping around half of it. Another swig of brandy steadied him and held his headache at bay. It was one.The young man with a wide green tie who opened the door was the second butler Emil had met in his life. The first had been at the home of the Academy di...rector, who invited all the graduating cadets to a celebration of their entrance into the world. That butler had been reserved yet always smiling; this one was reserved and disdainful. He made no effort to conceal his instant distaste for Emil’s stench as he gazed down on him—a trick, since he was shorter than Emil.“Comrade Michalec,” said Emil, tense. “Tell him a homicide inspector from the People’s Militia is here to see him.”“He’s expecting you?”“No.”The butler shut the door in his face.The peasant in the distance had stopped, leaning on his scythe to stare back.
