What reading level is Life Before Man book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
His bicycle is behind him somewhere in the darkness, parked against a bench. The air is cool, strange against his new scraped face.
He runs for pleasure, taking it easy, jogging over dying grass grey in the street lights, through fallen leaves whose colors he can barely see but guesses: orange, yellow, brown. They collect the leaves in green garbage bags and truck them away now, but once they raked them into piles and burned them in the streets, the smoke rising wispy and sweetish from the cente...rs of the mounds. He used to run with the others along the street, making sounds like a dive bomber, and then jump, clearing the mounds of leaves like hurdles. Forbidden, but if you missed it didn’t matter, the leaves were only smoldering. Men shaking rakes, telling them to bugger off.
Who did he run with, twenty or was it twenty-five years ago? Someone called Bobby, Tom something. They’re gone now, faceless; he gives them the nostalgia due to those who have died young. Casualties, though of nothing but his own memory.
