What reading level is Father Sergius book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Immediately after the service Father Sergius, having pronounced thebenediction on those present, went over to the bench under the elm treeat the entrance to the cave. He wished to rest and breathe the freshair--he felt in need of it. But as soon as he left the church the crowdof people rushed to him soliciting his blessing, his advice, and hishelp. There were pilgrims who constantly tramped from one holy place toanother and from one starets to another, and were always entranced byevery shrine a...nd every starets. Father Sergius knew this common, cold, conventional, and most irreligious type. There were pilgrims, forthe most part discharged soldiers, unaccustomed to a settled life, poverty-stricken, and many of them drunken old men, who tramped frommonastery to monastery merely to be fed. And there were rough peasantsand peasant-women who had come with their selfish requirements, seekingcures or to have doubts about quite practical affairs solved for them:about marrying off a daughter, or hiring a shop, or buying a bitof land, or how to atone for having overlaid a child or having anillegitimate one.
