What reading level is The Island of Doctor Moreau book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I could have imagined I was already dead and in another world. That dark hut, these grotesque dim figures, just flecked here andthere by a glimmer of light, and all of them swaying in unison andchanting, "Not to go on all-fours; that is the Law. Are we not Men? "Not to suck up Drink; that is the Law. Are we not Men? "Not to eat Fish or Flesh; that is the Law. Are we not Men? "Not to claw the Bark of Trees; that is the Law. Are we not Men? "Not to chase other Men; that is the Law. Are we not Men...?" And so from the prohibition of these acts of folly, on to the prohibition of what I thought then were the maddest, most impossible, and most indecent things one could well imagine. A kind of rhythmic fervour fell on all of us; we gabbledand swayed faster and faster, repeating this amazing Law. Superficially the contagion of these brutes was upon me, but deepdown within me the laughter and disgust struggled together. We ran through a long list of prohibitions, and then the chant swunground to a new formula.
