What reading level is Dante book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Not ^^orgil but his own conscience reproved the poet for a still worse offense. Once upon a time he had so far forgotten himself as actually to participate in a similar exchange of scurrilities. His sonnet correspondence with Forese Donati, a kinsman of the lady Dante married, has already been quoted (Chapter IV). In it we saw, to- gether with accusations of greediness, theft, and illegiti- mate birth, cast at the luckless gourmet, a cruel fling at Foresees wife and her neglected state. Later t
...he author made all possible amends. The imputation of high living was well founded; and Dante, allotting a place to Donati's spirit in Purgatory, has to put the soul among the gluttonous. All else he implicitly retracts; expli- dtly, the charge of coldness to his wife, to whom Forese, through the poet, now pays a loving tribute. Here is the scene. Wasted by hunger and thirst, tormented by the sight of fruit trees and the spray of waterfalls, a throng of ghosts overtakes Dante, who, with Virgil and Statins, is traversing one of the terraces of Fiurgatory.
