What reading level is Sixty Years of the Theater; An Old Critic's Memories book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He utterly failed to denote that one character was supplemental to the other. Essentially the difference between his two men was physical.
The moroseness and gloom of Jekyll had much in common with the sullen ferocity of Hyde. By making Jekyll buoyant and convivial, as he is expressly described in the book, he would have prepared a much finer and more artistic dramatic contrast. That he showed much acting power in illustrating his grotesque idea of Hyde, I fully acknowledge, but it was not of a...n inspired kind.
J. B. Studley, and others of the old Bowery melo- dramatic days, could have done as much. He was at:his. best in. his scene. with Dr. Lanyoh, where, after getting the drugs, Hyde taunts him with his incredulity and curiosity At this juncture there was a dash of the demoniacal in his voice and gesture, but the double impersonation, as a whole, evinced no astonishing amotmt of intui- tion, or. genuine versatility, and was wholly- un- 323 SIXTY YEARS OF THE THEATER worthy of the rhapsodical encomiums lavished upon it.
