What reading level is Thomas Edward Brown, the Manx Poet book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The greater part of Brown's work are narrative poems, portraying the Manx life and character, which have appeared under the title of "Fo'c's'le Yarns." The Isle of Man is, of course, the scene of these verses. Mr. Whyte says, " His • Fo'c's'le Yarns' are a crucial literary feat; apparent rough- ness with essential finish." 1 The language is racily idiomatic, and the rhyming of the simplest. On first glance, the lines seem of a rough and ready type, but to look carefully into their structure and... consider the means by which they achieve their end is to see that they are a result of conscious and deliberate art. They are written in the Manx dialect, because Brown wished nothing to stand between his Manx reader and the simple virtues of his beloved islanders ; because he wished to give to his own countrymen a perfectly true picture of the Isle of Man, its inhabitants, their habits and character. We may believe that Brown would have written in Manx if that language had still been currently spoken in the island.
