What reading level is Empty Mansions book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This was a super-luxury building, in the style of an Italian Renaissance palazzo, but not showy, turning a refined limestone face to the street.
Anna’s tastes were not altogether different from her husband’s, but she added a touch of the religious, with a dark, mysterious air. When the massive wooden door to Apartment 12W was opened, the visitor passed into a paneled Jacobean gallery, thirty-seven feet long with herringbone floors. From the eleven-foot ceilings hung an ornate brass lantern with ...a maiden encircled by branches and leaves of gold. On the long wall to the right was an old red tapestry, about twelve feet square, depicting Crusaders bargaining with a caliph for prisoners. On the left hung stained-glass windows, facing the building’s open courtyard. These colorful panels of red and blue, apparently dating from seventeenth-century Zurich, depicted angels, knights, and coats of arms.
Though they were downsizing, the Clarks still had a marvelous view. On their twelfth floor—the top floor—a string of nine oversize windows ran the entire length of the building alongside the avenue, allowing them a view of the rapidly changing city skyline.
