What reading level is A book of Essays book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
' They were better paid, to boot, oddly enough, if you except our popular novelists ; even Goldsmith, the unlucky, got 100 for a poem. And if you come to names and achievements Johnson, Gray, Sheridan, Goldsmith, Field- ing, Sterne I can tell you of a greater poet and (in my opinion) a greater novelist now alive, but the humorists ? I think, on the whole, that Mr. Walpole's time will stand a close scrutiny of names. By the way, three of those I have mentioned were quite unappre- ciated by Mr. W...alpole, their contemporary : I leave the moral to you. Let us turn to the stage, which in his time was not, as a living and producing thing, divorced from letters. They had Garrick : we have but it is idle to talk of acting. For plays they, as we, were largely the lucky slaves of Shakespeare. But they had Goldsmith and Sheridan, and had not forgotten Congreve. It may be that there are no comedies in English unquestion- ably great save certain of Shakespeare's and The Way of the World ; still the comedies of Sheridan and Goldsmith were comedies, not farces dashed with sentiment or melo- drama.
