What reading level is The book of the Dance book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Is it, like the opera, the concert and the recital, to be one of the justifications of our greater cities in "the season?" Has this art truly been restored to us? It is still battling for its place. Do we want it enough ot us to give it a living? No answer that the world will give to any question of the arts in the coming decades will be more important than the answer to this.
For through the dance, if at all, rhythm will return to life.
ON WITH THE DANCE xv Under the spell of one of the great ...dancers, who has not felt a tumult of longing to dance to run and leap and toss the arms for joy, to confess ourmelancholyinslowandswaying rhythms? It is a human function a vital need a primal desire invin' cibly inhering in the fibre of each stolid and conventional one of us. We had securely hidden the secret beneath our conven- tional behaviors ; but now we yearn for a new and liberated order in which we may indeed dance. Then we go out into the complexity and ugliness of the life that rushes by in our streets; we become aware of our clothes, which bind and weigh us down, and could not flutter in the breeze nor take a beautiful life from swaying limbs and running feet ; we remember the tragic disunion of the social order, the absence of communal spirit.
