What reading level is Life of Victor Hugo book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He never wears a great coat ; he never carries an umbrella. His favourite form of relaxation is riding on the top of an omnibus. He goes up in a balloon — a kind of amuse- ment which Madame Drouet by no means enjoys. He is fond of little excursions in the environs of Paris, and is on such occasions the blithest of companions, as frolic as a boy, pleased with everything, the scenery, the flowers, the fare at the inn, all the little incidents of the day.
Well may M. de Banville say that he is you...nger in these later times than he had been at thirty. At thirty he was writing of " Autumn Leaves," and singing " Songs of the 206 LIFE OF Twilight." Now, with life near its end, he is full of peace, looking death cheerfully in the face, confident in the hope of a world beyond the grave ; and ardent, too, in his faith that a happier age is dawning for mankind.
So does a serene and beautiful light linger upon the evening of his day of life. When one remembers how sadly the careers of such men as Chateaubriand, Lamar- tine, Alfred de Musset, wore to a close — how painful are the concluding chapters of most biographies — one can, I think, but be glad that a great man should thus live greatly to the end.
