What reading level is Atrocities in Russian Prisons book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Writing verses, which, in the opinion of the Administra- tion, were of a revolutionary character. " Giving tobacco to a comrade. " Asking a comrade for some tobacco. " Refusing to denounce a culprit. " Speaking to a fellow-prisoner during exercise. " Not cleaning the pail properly. " For each of these offences prisoners received from twenty to fifty strokes apiece. " Even the following reason was given : For having picked a flower during exercise, five strokes of the rod. " And, lastly, a pri...soner was punished with the rod simply because he was ' a Jew ! ' ' Such things were formerly considered more or less as the accidental abuses of a tyrannical regime, and not the legalisation of a degrading punishment. . J^But now this last step has been attempted. They have dared to take it already in some prisons in the interior of Russia, in Boutirky, Vladimir, and Orel. The Siberian prisons, in which there were a great number of political prisoners whom in spite of all it was customary to treat with respect, had so far been spared.
