What reading level is The Compass of His Bones And Other Stories book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But now, over the ghostly moans of the dying, Tupac heard footsteps on the stairs outside his room.It was a large, drafty room, for the invaders had stripped it of everything except a chair and the burnished salt birch floor, which they could not carry away with them. They had bound Tupac Amaru to the chair with rough hemp, positioning him near the only window. Outside, the Sun God Inti, father of the divine messenger, the hummingbird, faded in the west. In the courtyard below, the Spaniards had... begun to slaughter llamas and alpacas, their screams not unlike those of his nobles from the days and nights before.But he remained calm, even as he had remained calm when, on the second day of his imprisonment, he had seen the likeness of his son Hualpa — whom he had sent into southern exile five days before — in the clefts of rock and shadow.Despite, or perhaps because of, the numbness in his limbs, the burning thirst, his son’s image had become sharper, etched into the land with a permanence that mocked Tupac’s own failing strength.Ichnoti and Tuectolt formed his son’s eyes: turquoise lakes pooling on a hilly shelf outside the city’s walls.
