What reading level is Wine of the Dreamers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The night air, as always, was cool. Night in this land, he thought, is different. The land seems to rest from the heavy fist of the sun.Step out of the cool shadows of early morning and the sun is a vast white blow between the eyes. The sun sucks greedily at all liquids. A man lost for a full day in the wastes of rock and sand will be found in the blue dusk, curled in fetal position, lips black, body withered and mummified like the long-dead.Parched, wind-driven air dries the membranes of mouth ...and nose. The sun gaunts the men, pinches wrinkles into the flesh around the eyes. It fades colors and drabs the women.At night, in the blue desert dusk the jukes sing out the plaintive old ballads, and the young girls dance with a determined abandon. For the young girls know that the sun makes short work of youth, and juices are soon gone. Flat bronzed Indian faces look in at the dancers, and their eyes are polished obsidian. They know that they alone are bred for this land, and when the pallid laughing ones are gone, they will remain.There are racial memories, more of a faint pulse of blood and ache of bone than a true memory.
