What reading level is William Morris book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was easy for Morris to say that a poet was ''no good" unless he could compose an epic while he was weaving tapestry; for to him both arts were alike, in method and in result. And while there was rough material in the world, there was no reason why his verses should come to an end any sooner than his hands stopped working. There was no wrestling of the thought with the words, no striving after the one and only phrase. Everything he touched must be rendered by the colours and the threads he ha...d prepared before- hand. For the purposes of his tales, too, a certain breadth was obtainable by this method. After the minute and exquisite art of Tennyson, it was not unrefreshing to be told simply that the sea was " green *' — to be given oertfldn nature-symbols and to be left to imagine the rest.
IV * THE LIFE AND DEATH OF JASON ' 49 One of the great principles of style, economy of the reader's attention, is certainly maintained by Morris's method ; and there are few books, in prose or verse, of fiction or anything else, so easy to read with enjoyment and rapidity as The Life and Death of Jason, Page after page and book after book slip by as the reader follows the heroes on their quest for the Golden Fleece, and through all the wild adventures of their return, as easily as if one were pacing down a long gallery hung with tapestries telling the whole story without the inter- vention of language.
