What reading level is The Crane Wife book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They’d tried to run for it anyway – George still naked, Kumiko in the barest of nightslips – but they only managed two or three stairs before the smoke beat them back.
‘I cannot,’ Kumiko had said behind him, coughing out the words with an alarming wetness.
It wasn’t just that the smoke was unbreathable, it felt like a living thing, a cloud of snakes trying to reach down your throat to not just choke you, but poison you, burn you with darkness. George understood in the worst possible inst...ant what news stories meant when they said people died of smoke inhalation. One or two breaths of this and your lungs no longer worked, one or two more and you lost consciousness forever.
Through flashes of it, he could see flames already coating the bottom of the stairs, so there might not have been a route for them even if they could have made it down.
They retreated to the bedroom, shutting the door behind them for all the good that it did.
