What reading level is The Perils of Sherlock Holmes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I can’t, because I can’t recall a time when he wasn’t known to me on some level.
In all the vast panoply of immortal literary characters, I can think of only four who have entered the dictionary with definitions of their own. To “create a Frankenstein,” be called “a real Jekyll and Hyde,” or address someone as “Sherlock” requires no explanation, even for an immigrant learning the English language. (Jekyll and Hyde, of course, present the problem of whether to consider them as two characters or o...ne.) Yet Sherlock Holmes stands alone as a pictorial icon as well, and one that crosses all boundaries: class, generation, and geography.
One’s image of Frankenstein (or rather of his monster) depends on whether he grew up watching Boris Karloff, Christopher Lee, or Robert De Niro. The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde has been reprinted and filmed so many times, and imagined by so many different illustrators and actors, that no two people can be selected at random who agree on their appearance.
