What reading level is Owen Marshall Selected Stories book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
So the Ace of Diamonds Gang seems my full boyhood before the uncertainty of adolescence. I recall no peculiar origin; like the heroes of history it arose when it needed to be there.
Always the special moment was when we put on our masks. The triangle of white handkerchief over the lower face, and the red diamond that we’d stamped on with the oil paints that belonged to Bernie’s mother. There was frisson as each known face became strangely divided. Not handkerchiefs with red diamonds smudged ...did we acquire, but anonymity, confederacy, a clear exception to approved society. After Boys’ Brigade was a favourite time, when lanyards and Christianity had been dispensed with, we would rendezvous in the centre of the old macrocarpa hedge to become the Ace of Diamonds Gang. The night would be moonlit perhaps, and we would move off in dispersed formation, keeping in touch by drifting whistles and calls of birds extinct except within the diamond lands. Like wraiths we went, said Bernie once.
