What reading level is Literature And Life (Complete) book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Of course, "Maud" seemed to me the finest poem I had read, up to thattime, but I am not sure that this conclusion was wholly my own; I thinkit was partially formed for me by the admiration of the poem which I feltto be everywhere in the critical atmosphere, and which had alreadypenetrated to me. I did not like all parts of it equally well, and someparts of it seemed thin and poor (though I would not suffer myself to sayso then), and they still seem so. But there were whole passages andspaces of... it whose divine and perfect beauty lifted me above life. I didnot fully understand the poem then; I do not fully understand it now, butthat did not and does not matter; for there something in poetry thatreaches the soul by other enues than the intelligence. Both in this poemand others of Tennyson, and in every poet that I have loved, there aremelodies and harmonies enfolding significance that appeared long after Ihad first read them, and had even learned them by heart; that lay weedyin my outer ear and were enough in their Mere beauty of phrasing, tillthe time came for them to reveal their whole meaning.
