What reading level is Japanese Plays And Playfellows book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Every island has its name, rooted in his- toric or legendary allusion. To the Japanese one has suggested " Buddha's entry into Nirvana," another "The island of question and reply," while a third group is symbolic of " The twelve Imperial consorts." But our Western eyes could well dispense with that strange bias of Eastern fancy which prefers to asso- ciate form with meaning : for us it was enough to glide slowly through the haunted waters, to watch the blue waves foaming at the island's edge or... leaping in the sunlight to meet the pine's tentacular caress.
From the last of the islands to the mouth of the Kitakami River, on which Ishinomaki stands, is a rough stretch of sea exposed to the full force of the Pacific rollers. Our tiny steamer was buffeted by wind and rain, and my companion suffered such agonies of sea-sickness that it took him two days to recover health and spirits. By good luck we found in the Asano-ya one of those cosy and coquettish hostel- ries which only Japan can boast, where the eye is as constantly charmed by good taste as the body is com- forted by good cheer.
