To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The bad taste of the general effect was the morecomplete from the lack of finish and the overcrowding of the room, which gave one a feeling that something was lacking, and that agreat deal should have been thrown away. It was evident that thefurniture had not been bought all at once, but had been picked upat auctions and other favourable opportunities. Heaven knows what taste the lieutenant could boast of, but even henoticed one characteristic peculiarity about the whole place, whichno luxury o...r style could efface--a complete absence of all traceof womanly, careful hands, which, as we all know, give a warmth, poetry, and snugness to the furnishing of a room. There was achilliness about it such as one finds in waiting-rooms at stations, in clubs, and foyers at the theatres. There was scarcely anything in the room definitely Jewish, except, perhaps, a big picture of the meeting of Jacob and Esau. Thelieutenant looked round about him, and, shrugging his shoulders, thought of his strange, new acquaintance, of her free-and-easymanners, and her way of talking.
