What reading level is A Publishers Confession book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But I do not publish it. To do so, I should have had to pay the price of being "converted. " Now this lady is So A PUBLISHER'S CONFESSION a crank. But it is not fair to call her books literature.
The veriest crank of all is our great scholar. It is an honor to publish the re- sults of his scholarship (few parsnips as it butters), for the man's work is as at- tractive as he is odd. He thinks himself the very soul of fairness. Yet he comes at frequent intervals wishing so to change his contract a...s to make publish- ing his books an even more expensive luxury than it was before. A contract is to him a thing to make endless ex- periments with. When we were once driven to desperation, one of my asso- ciates suggested that we propose half a dozen unimportant changes in it, on the theory that change — any change — was all he wanted. It was an inspired sug- gestion. A great scholar, a restless child. But some day (we feel) he will break over all traces, and we are all afraid of him.
But very sane and sensible men and A PUBLISHER'S CONFESSION 51 women are most of those who succeed in winning the public favor.
