What reading level is Stories of the Victorian Writers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This we take to be the meaning of the story of the quest for the Grail — the holy vessel which held the blood of Christ. The quest was good for saintly knights like Galahad, but not for men like the more worldly Lancelot. It took them from the work which they could do, to attempt what was for them impossible. They "were following wandering fires. " This is the reason why Arthur saw in the quest of the Grail A sign to maim this order which I made.
It took worldly men out of the world and shut th...em off from their fellows ; and though they were in that way taken out of temptation to do wrong, yet they did not themselves grow in holiness. The proper question to ask about a man's life is not how few sins has he committed, but how much good has he done: How dull it is to pause, to make an end. To rust unburnished, not to shine in use^.
Meanwhile Tennyson and his wife had become rich enough to live in a beautiful house in the Isle of Wight, where in winter the hoary Channel Tumbles a billow on chalk and sand.
