What reading level is What's Wrong With the World book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To urge this is not to urge the reality of the vote, but to urge its unreality. Democracy was meant to be a more direct wayof ruling, not a more indirect way; and if we do not feel that we areall jailers, so much the worse for us, and for the prisoners. If it isreally an unwomanly thing to lock up a robber or a tyrant, it ought tobe no softening of the situation that the woman does not feel as if shewere doing the thing that she certainly is doing. It is bad enough thatmen can only associate on... paper who could once associate in the street;it is bad enough that men have made a vote very much of a fiction. Itis much worse that a great class should claim the vote be cause it isa fiction, who would be sickened by it if it were a fact. If votes forwomen do not mean mobs for women they do not mean what they were meantto mean. A woman can make a cross on a paper as well as a man; a childcould do it as well as a woman; and a chimpanzee after a few lessonscould do it as well as a child. But nobody ought to regard it merelyas making a cross on paper; everyone ought to regard it as what itultimately is, branding the fleur-de-lis, marking the broad arrow, signing the death warrant.
