What reading level is Essays of Robert Louis Stevenson book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Indirectly and as if againsthis will the same elements from time to time appear in the troubledand poetic talk of Opalstein. [22] His various and exotic knowledge, complete although unready sympathies, and fine, full, discriminativeflow of language, fit him out to be the best of talkers; so perhaps heis with some, not _quite_ with me--_proxime accessit_, [23] I shouldsay. He sings the praises of the earth and the arts, flowers andjewels, wine and music, in a moonlight, serenading manner, as to ...thelight guitar; even wisdom comes from his tongue like singing; no oneis, indeed, more tuneful in the upper notes. But even while he singsthe song of the Sirens, he still hearkens to the barking of theSphinx. Jarring Byronic notes interrupt the flow of his Horatianhumours. His mirth has something of the tragedy of the world for itsperpetual background; and he feasts like Don Giovanni to a doubleorchestra, one lightly sounding for the dance, one pealingBeethoven[24] in the distance. He is not truly reconciled either withlife or with himself; and this instant war in his members sometimesdivides the man's attention.
