What reading level is The Rural Life book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If August goes on the way July has, the horses will have to eat hostas, which have never looked more prosperous. Everything fungal is having a high time of it. On yet another wet morning, with the rain disguised temporarily as fog, the bees hung in sodden mats from the hive entrances. The sky has been the color of auto primer all week long. The old metaphors for night’s arrival fail. It doesn’t “come,” it doesn’t “fall.” The sun doesn’t “set.” The clouds merely obtrude themselves until darkness ...is complete. The dogs, who are photosensitive for food, expect five o’clock supper at noon.
And so July ended. It’s been like living under a rhubarb leaf. In parts of the Northeast, the month’s average rainfall fell in a single day, disbelief rising like water in the storm drains as hour after hour passed with no letup, the runoff gouging out driveways and washing out fields, stunting already stunted corn. The average daily temperature for July was colder than normal by nearly 4½ degrees in New York City, or colder by nearly 8½ degrees than last July, when we were all complaining about the insufferable heat.
