What reading level is The City On the Edge of Forever book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
NEW YORK STREET—EVENING—ESTABLISHING CLOSE ON a hand-lettered placard that reads: I FOUGHT AT VERDUN as CAMERA PULLS BACK we see the sign is hung around the neck of a legless cripple, hunkered down on his stumps on a wooden push-board that rolls on roller skate wheels. He has a tray of apples and pencils beside him. His cap is pulled down far over his eyes, and the beard stubble looks as though it nests a troupe of nits. A VOICE O.S. speaks to him just as a PAIR OF LEGS MOVE INTO FRAME. All ...we see are the legs.
KIRK’S VOICE O.S.
Are you Trooper?
TROOPER looks up with rheumy eyes. In that face is the true meaning of the worst social era America ever faced. He is a man destroyed. The light has gone out in the eyes, the mouth speaks a silent sadness. Disillusioned. He was the drummer boy who went to war, and came back to find no one needed him. He nods up at the unseen person.
TROOPER Good apples, fellah. Pencils? I fought at Verdun.
KIRK’S VOICE O.S.
Someone told me to come see you.
