What reading level is Death Among the Sunbathers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
After existing in somewhat precarious fashion during the pre-war and war periods, it had suddenly blossomed into huge success during that boom when people believed that peace and prosperity were synonyms. For a time all that was necessary to sell a picture was to have a sufficient stock in hand, and during that period the profits had been very large. Unfortunately, the elder Mr Keene, a little over-excited, imagining these were conditions that would last, much under the influence of what psycho-...analysts would probably call a ‘victory complex’, had invested practically all those profits, almost all his working capital, indeed, in more pictures, of which nearly all, now that slump had replaced boom, remained in the cellars, insured at a figure far above present-day values. The famous Rembrandt, for example, for which it will be remembered the elder Keene, shortly before his death, gave a large sum at Christie’s, and concerning the authenticity of which a sharp discussion raged for a time in the columns of the art journals, still remained on the hands of his son, in spite of the fact that a South American millionaire had once paid a deposit on it.
