What reading level is Charles Dickens a Critical Study book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Every man was a beau- tiful caricature of himself. The man who has known such nights will understand the exaggera- tions of " Pickwick." The man who has not known such nights will not enjoy " Pickwick " nor (I imagine) heaven. For, as I have said, Dickens is, in this matter, close to popular religion, which is the ultimate and reliable religion. He conceives an endless joy; he conceives creatures as permanent as Puck or Pan— creatures whose will to live aeons upon aeons cannot satisfy. He is no...t come, as a writer, that his creatures may copy life and copy its narrowness; he is come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. It is absurd indeed that Christians should be called the enemies of life because they wish life to last for ever; it is more absurd still to call the old comic writers dull because they wished their unchanging characters to last for ever. Both popular religion, with its endless joys, and the old comic story, with its end- less jokes, have in our time faded together.
