What reading level is The Duchess book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is evidently a struggle that can not last long. De- laney's face is already death - like, rendered the more ghastly because of the heavy drops of blood that are run- ning down it from a wound in the forehead, and his coat is torn away from one arm that hangs helplessly by his side. With the other arm he still holds his would-be murderer, and with the tenacity of his race is still holding his own, when another would be lying spent and insensible.
To Norah — who is of his own blood, and who ca...n see for herself that unless succor is prompt the end is very near — this sight gives fresh courage. Her spirit rises within her; she sets her teeth and looks swiftly, keenly around her. A short, heavy stake, part of the broken gate- way, catches her eye; she loses no time; she moves quickly toward it; to seize it noiselessly, to spring once again to that high part of the bank that brings her right over the assassin's THE DUCHESS. 175 h&ad and within a foot of him, takes her but a minute, and then I With all the strength of her strong young arms she lifta the heavy piece of wood well above her shoulder, and brings it down again with unerring precision right upon the scoundrel's pate!
