What reading level is The Girl With the Golden Eyes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" She pressed him in her arms with an embrace in which the terror ofdeath mingled. Then she touched a spring, which must have been inconnection with a bell, and implored De Marsay to permit his eyes tobe bandaged.
"And if I would not--and if I wished to stay here?" "You would be the death of me more speedily, " she said, "for now Iknow I am certain to die on your account. " Henri submitted. In the man who had just gorged himself with pleasurethere occurs a propensity to forgetfulness, I know no...t whatingratitude, a desire for liberty, a whim to go elsewhere, a tinge ofcontempt and, perhaps, of disgust for his idol; in fine, indescribablesentiments which render him ignoble and ashamed. The certainty of thisconfused, but real, feeling in souls who are not illuminated by thatcelestial light, nor perfumed with that holy essence from which theperformance of sentiment springs, doubtless suggested to Rousseau theadventures of Lord Edward, which conclude the letters of the _NouvelleHeloise_. If Rousseau is obviously inspired by the work of Richardson, he departs from it in a thousand details, which leave his achievementmagnificently original; he has recommended it to posterity by greatideas which it is difficult to liberate by analysis, when, in one'syouth, one reads this work with the object of finding in it the luridrepresentation of the most physical of our feelings, whereas seriousand philosophical writers never employ its images except as theconsequence or the corollary of a vast thought; and the adventures ofLord Edward are one of the most Europeanly delicate ideas of the wholework.
