What reading level is The Dutiful Rake book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The wainscoting all looked as though it might as well be torn down; the hangings had obviously not been attended to for years. They hung tattered and faded over windows for which cleaning was a distant memory. When he had taken a volume from the shelves in curiosity, a cloud of dust and several moths had attended it.The only positive aspect of the room was the fact that it had not succumbed to the atmosphere of damp prevailing in the rest of the house. A phenomenon which Marcus had no hesitation... in ascribing to the circumstance of his uncle having used only this room and forbidding fires in any other.The rest of the house was cold, damp and unspeakably dreary. Rugs were badly worn, although he could see where tears had been carefully mended. Curtains were faded and in many cases ragged. The furniture, he noted, was well dusted except for this room. It was even waxed in the parlour. But everywhere there was evidence of decay.Certainly the linen was in an appalling condition. He had put his foot through both sheets last night and a brief inspection that morning had revealed that, despite frequent mending and being turned sides to middle, they had long ago reached the point where they would have disgraced a rag-bag.He sat at the large mahogany desk and perused the estate books.
