What reading level is The Hound of Heaven book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Hearn lost his faith then or shortly afterwards: Thompson's irregular habits of dreamy abstraction rendered him unfit for a sac- erdotal career. When he had completed his course at college, where he had distinguished himself in English composition and attained re- 18 INTRODUCTION spectable standing in the classics, his father, a hard-working physician, entered the lad, now eighteen, as a student of medicine in Owen Col- lege, Manchester. The Thompson family had moved from Preston to Ashton-unde...r-Lyne, where proximity to Manchester made it possible for the young medical student to spend his nights at home.
Francis was of the silent and secretive sort where he could not hope to find intelligent sym- pathy. This, and some cloudy compromise with his sense of filial dutifulness, will perhaps ex- plain why he passed six years as a student of medicine without any serious purpose of becoming a physician and without informing his father of his disinclination. Three examinations and three failures at intervals of a year were necessary to convince the father of the true state of affairs.
