What reading level is Concerning Lafcadio Hearn book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They had no soul, and only the soul, the spirit, can be immortalized. Hearn's good fortune is that un- consciously, even almost against his will, he was more than they, more than an artist as such. He had something else to do. If it had not been for his poverty, the necessity to sell what he wrote, he would Hearn's Style 183 surely have gone the same road to Avernus as his masters. Then, too, he had no original message to write, because he had no real soul, only a borrowed one. Japan gave him h...er soul to rematerialize and recolor with literary life. Without his Japanese work Hearn would have died as a litterateur in the year he died as a physical body. To tell her "ghostly" stories was his great office and function. When these were told his work was done. His old gloating over the clotted villainies of medieval horror had been much outgrown, and it had no chance to be used in Japan. The Japanese character would not tolerate such things. The ghastly was trans- formed into the ghostly, and his Oriental fancy was luckily turned to better duties and pleasures.
