What reading level is The Diary of a Man of Fifty book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" "Your mother might have told you, since she occasionally did me thehonour to speak of me. " "All my mother ever told me was that you were--a sad puzzle to her. " At this, of course, I laughed out--I laugh still as I write it.
"Well, then, that was my situation--I was a sad puzzle to a very cleverwoman. " "And you mean, therefore, that I am a puzzle to poor Mr. Stanmer?" "He is racking his brains to make you out. Remember it was you who saidhe was intelligent. " She looked round at him, and as... fortune would have it, his appearance atthat moment quite confirmed my assertion. He was lounging back in hischair with an air of indolence rather too marked for a drawing-room, andstaring at the ceiling with the expression of a man who has just beenasked a conundrum. Madame Scarabelli seemed struck with his attitude.
"Don't you see, " I said, "he can't read the riddle?" "You yourself, " she answered, "said he was incapable of thinking evil. Ishould be sorry to have him think any evil of _me_. " And she looked straight at me--seriously, appealingly--with her beautifulcandid brow.
