What reading level is Mogens And Other Stories book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the meantime those from the tavern continued their scandalousbehavior upon the high altar. A huge, massive butcher among them, ayoung man, had taken off his white apron and tied it around his neck, sothat it hung down his back like a surplice, and he celebrated masswith the wildest and maddest words, full of obscenity and blasphemy. Anoldish little fellow with a fat belly, active and nimble in spite ofhis weight, with a face like a skinned pumpkin was the sacristanand responded with the most... frivolous refrains. He kneeled down andgenuflected and turned his back to the altar and rang the bell as thoughit were a jester's and swung the censer round like a wheel. The otherslay drunk on the steps at full length, bellowing with laughter andhiccoughing with drunkenness.
The whole church laughed and howled and mocked at the strangers. Theycalled out to them to pay close attention so that they might know whatthe people thought of their God, here in Old Bergamo. For it was not somuch their wish to insult God that made them rejoice in the tumult; butthey felt satisfaction in knowing that each of their blasphemies was asting in the hearts of these holy people.
