What reading level is The Conquest of Bread book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But we expect more from the Revolution. We see that the worker, compelled to struggle pain- fully for bare existence, is reduced to ignorance of these higher delights, the highest within man's reach, of science, and especially of scientific dis- covery; of art, and especially of artistic creation.
It is in order to obtain these joys for all, which are now reserved to a few; in order to give leisure and the possibility of developing intellectual capacities, that the social revolution must guaran...tee daily bread to all. After bread has been secured, leisure is the supreme aim.
No doubt, nowadays, when hundreds and thou- sands of human beings are in need of bread, coal, clothing, and shelter, luxury is a crime; to satisfy it the worker's child must go without bread! But in a society in which all can eat sufficiently, the needs which we consider luxuries to-day will be the more keenly felt. And as all men do not and cannot resemble one another (the variety of tastes and needs is the chief guarantee of human progress) there will always be, and it is desirable that there should always be, men and women whose desire will go beyond those of ordinary individuals in some particular direction.
