What reading level is Manhattan book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
FIFTH AVENUE ORDLY and wide, with gradual rise and fall, As the triumphal way where victors will Ascend no more the templed Roman hill; And sweeping upward lordlier than all Great paven paths, it gleams between the tall Grandeur of flanking granite ; lordlier still Than the abysmal roads that waters fill, Worn deep in shadow of the canyon wall. And when the sun may strike with splendor free, The glamor of the past exalts the hour ; And up the hill where golden temples tower, The gorgeous pagean...t, glittering as the sea, In long procession to the goal of power, Moves like a triumph of antiquity.
1 1 THE FLATIRONS O lone colossi of a desert land, Left desolate by dynasties unknown, Are these august mysteriarchs of stone, Immured in life instead of drifting sand ; They see the glory of the night expand, And far below upon her flaring throne, The siren city, making art her own, Enchant her million slaves from every land. Under their coronal of stars they seem Survivors of a propylean file ; Gigantic columns guarding in a dream The gateway of the world to Mammon s mile ; While at their base, and distant on the night, The phantom river rolls its waves of light.
