What reading level is And the Land Lay Still book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Or it felt like floating, or drifting, or like nothing at all. No motion. Just, there you were – in, on – and there it was – below, around – a splash of land on the ocean, a splatter of stone soil grass forest road town city, and broken-off bits scattered across the great wet belly of the world. And over it splashed lochs and rivers and burns, so much cold, clear water you’d think the land would drown in it, but it didn’t, it lay there still, breathing – sodden and bogged down in some parts, roc...k-hard and ragged in others, but still breathing. And the sea breathing its endless breaths around it, in out in out in out, great white waves crashing on black rocks, exhausted waves flopping flatly on deserted beaches, weed washing back and forth in bays and inlets, and fish eels lobsters seals ebbing and flowing in the tidal inhalations, exhalations, and sometimes a seal watching you, ten twenty thirty minutes an hour, submerging then resurfacing, always watching you, coming closer, keeping a distance, and you watching the seal, pacing it along the shore, connected but never connected, always apart.
