What reading level is In the Dozy Hours And Other Papers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Think how many they are, and how long they are, and how alike they are, and how serious they are, and how little we ourselves would care to read them ! If the re- viewer sometimes misses what is really good, or praises what is really bad, this does not mean that he is incompetent, dishonest, or butcherly. It means that he is human, that he is tired, perhaps a little peevish, and dis- posed to think the world would be a merrier place if there were fewer authors in it. The new novelist or budding... poet who comes for- ward at this unpropitious moment is not hailed with acclamations of delight ; while the conscientious worker who has spent long months in compiling the weighty memoirs of departed mediocrity is outraged by the scant attention he receives. Meanwhile the number of books increases with fearful speed. Each is the embodiment of a sanguine hope, and each claims its meed of praise. A fallible 152 IN THE DOZY HOURS.
reviewer struggles with the situation as best he can, saying pleasant things which are scan- tily merited, and sharp things which are hardly deserved ; but striving intelligently, and with tolerable success to tell a self-indul- gent public something about the volumes which it is too lazy to read for itself.
