What reading level is Nine Yiddish Writers Critical Appreciations book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
You may perhaps be impelled to denounce, as a barbarous gourmand, the tailor who enacts a household tragedy over five potatoes, but the atmo- sphere of true domesticity and the humanity that surrounds the scene, will make you hesitate and con- sider. And so on with every scene and every char- acter. Reisin's spirit is there to protect his creations from harm, to demand for them justice and sym- pathy.
Pessimism, hedonism, materialism are some of the epithets used to discredit the realist in art.... To Yiddish literature, these terms cannot be applied. Reisin, the realist, can by no means be accused of despising life or of debasing it. He loves life pas- sionately, loves its duties as well as its pleasures, its sorrows as well as its joys. The harsh note in his realism is distinctly Yiddish; it's the weakness of the people, the lack of means, of opportunity, the in- numerable obstacles, both physical and spiritual, due to a complexity of reasons, which render the Jew [46] ABRAHAM REISIN powerless to obtain all that life offers and all toward which he strives.
