What reading level is Viva Mexico!: a Traveller's Account of Life in Mexico book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But he reared back and the door- way was once more a frame without a picture. The next afternoon some one on the place shot a deer 124 VIVA MEXICO!
and tried to sell me a piece of it, but, although I hadn't had meat for days, I couldn't bring myself to buy any. Then, too, it is about time for some- body — somebody very young or very old-^to die.
Death here is more than death; it is a social op- portunity. I always go to the wakes, both because I know my presence adds interest and eclat to the o...ccasions and because I enjoy them. Everybody (except me) sits on the floor — the women draped in their rebozos as if they were in church — while the deceased, in a corner of the room, with candles at its head and feet, and wild flowers on the wall above ^it, seems somehow to take a pallid interest in what goes on. I do not sit on the floor because the bereaved family has borrowed a chair from Rosalia in the hope that I would come. But when I take possession of it I, of course, do not let on that I know it belongs to me.
