What reading level is The Power And the Glory book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It would be dangerous to send another man because the news would be around the city in no time that Padre José had been permitted to carry out a religious duty in the prison. It was wiser not to let even the jefe know: one didn't trust one's superiors when one was more successful than they were. He knew the jefe wasn't pleased that he had brought the priest in-an escape would have been better from his point of view.In the patio he could feel himself watched by a dozen eyes: the children clustere...d there ready to shout at Padre José if he appeared. He wished he had promised the priest nothing, but he was going to keep his word-because it would be a triumph for that old corrupt God-ridden world if it could show itself superior on any point-whether of courage, truthfulness, justice...Nobody answered his knock: he stood darkly in the patio like a petitioner. Then he knocked again, and a voice called: "A moment. A moment."Padre José put his face against the bars of his window and said: "Who's there?" He seemed to be fumbling at something near the ground."Lieutenant of police.""Oh," Padre José squeaked.

A thoroughly dreary and depressing read without one ray of light. I found Power and the Glory to be well written but the subject matter was much too dark for me to enjoy.Write Review:
