What reading level is Quest And Vision Essays in Life And Literature book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But another consequence is that her -fiction is wrought with a majesty and power which give it a category of its own and secure for it a noble place in English literature. It is superb fiction ; but it is much more than fiction.
George Eliot seldom spoke of her own works even to intimate friends, but in the last year of her life she once asked Mr. Cross a question concerning their general effect upon his mind, which led him to reply that he felt the general effect to be profoundly sad. She was ...grieved and disappointed with the answer.
In spite of endless physical depressions she herself possessed an indomitable cheerfulness, and she naturally supposed she had communi- cated some portion of that cheerfulness to her writings. Yet unquestionably Mr. Cross was right. The dominant chord, sometimes almost lulled into a distant murmur but never silent, GEORGE ELIOT. 147 and continually swelling up into tragic passion and pain, is sadness. Her humor passes like a ripple of swift sunshine or laughter, but the old gray sky closes up again and the smothered wail of pain makes itself heard.
