What reading level is The Sleepwalkers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He was reading the Cologne News, which had just arrived. The two gentlemen said good-evening, and the Major rose and invited them to sit at his table.
The Surgeon-Major most tactlessly referred to the newspaper: “Are we to have the pleasure, Herr Major, of reading you in other papers too?”
The Major simply shook his head, handed the paper across the table, and indicating the column containing the reports from the Front said: “Bad news.”
Dr Kühlenbeck glanced over the reports: “Really no worse th...an usual, Herr Major.”
The Major looked up questioningly.
“Herr Major, all news is bad except one thing, and that is—peace.”
“You’re right there,” said the Major, “but it must be an honourable peace.”
“Right,” said Kühlenbeck, lifting his glass, “then here’s to peace.”
The other two gentlemen clinked glasses with him and the Major repeated again: “To an honourable peace … otherwise what should all those sacrifices have been made for?” As though he wanted to say something more, he still held his glass in his hand but remained silent; at last, however, he shook off his immobility and said: “Honour is by no means a mere convention … once upon a time poison-gas would have been rejected as a weapon of warfare.”
