What reading level is On the Staircase book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Gives me the shivers when you talk like that. " "I'm quite sane. Don't you hate it yourself?" "I like it. It's nice. Like putty, indeed !" She was con- scious of watering eyes and a sense of hopeless chagrin. She had chosen the blouse as very pretty; it was a sort of flannelette, and very warm and comfortable; and if Adrian didn't like her clothes — what zvas she to do? Velancourt turned his eyes away, and she went on sewing the button- holes, and thinking over his speech. A tear wandered out o...f one eye, and ran down her nose, splashing suddenly on the blouse. It broke her nerve, so that she suddenly put the work on the table, and her arms on it, and her head in her arms.
"Cissie !" Velancourt cried, becoming aware of this so quiet action through the sense of unhappy silence that fell upon the room, like a hush of dread. He left his chair, and came to her side, holding her, but not so passionately as to make her resistance unavailing. He waited ; and she was exasperated afresh by his inability to override her mood of grizzling misery.
