What reading level is Empty Mansions: the Mysterious Life of Huguette Clark And the Spending of a Great American Fortune book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
She turned down the entreaties of an agent for Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the shah of Iran, when he wanted to buy the property in January 1979, in the last days before he fled the Islamic Revolution. Even after his death, the shah, the last king of Iran, couldn’t meet the admission standards for the Montecito neighborhood. His sister wrote to the Santa Barbara Cemetery asking to buy space for a family mausoleum but was refused.
Huguette wouldn’t give permission for the Hollywood billionaire Marvin ...Davis to land his helicopter for a tour of Bellosguardo in 1989, when he was offering $30 million to $40 million for the estate.
Newspapers offered reports that the Beanie Babies tycoon, Ty Warner, had raised the possibility of paying $100 million for Bellosguardo, but Huguette wasn’t interested.
The Santa Barbara Museum of Art asked her in 1991 and 2004 to donate the home but got nowhere. Her attorney Don Wallace said she did seriously discuss leaving the home to the nearby Music Academy of the West.
