What reading level is Helbeck of Bannisdale volume I book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On her returnfrom her walk with the dogs the day before, she had found a service goingon in the chapel, Father Bowles officiating, and some figures in blackgowns and white-winged coifs assisting. She had fled to her own room, butwhen she came down again, the black-garbed "Sisters" were still there, and she had been introduced to them. Ugh! what manners! Must one always, if one was a Catholic, make that cloying, hypocritical impression? "Threeof them kissed me, " she reminded herself, in a quive...r of wrath.
They were Sisters from the orphanage apparently, or one of theorphanages, and there had been endless talk of new buildings and money, while she, Laura, sat dumb in her corner looking at old photographs ofthe house. Helbeck, indeed, had not talked much. While the black womenwere chattering with Augustina and Father Bowles, he had stood, mostlysilent, under the picture of his great-grandmother, only breaking throughhis reverie from time to time to ask or answer a question. Was hepondering the sale of the great-grandmother, or did he simply know thathis silence and aloofness were picturesque, that they compelled otherpeople's attention, and made him the centre of things more effectivelythan more ordinary manners could have done?
