What reading level is The Land of Little Rain book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And at Jimville they understand the language of the hills.
Jimville does not know a great deal about the crust of the earth, it prefers a " hunch." That is an intimation from the gods that if you go over a brown back of the hills, by a dripping spring, up Coso way, you will find what is worth while. I have never heard that the failure of any particular hunch disproved the principle. Somehow the rawness of the land favors the sense of personal relation to the supernatural.
There is not much inte...rvention of crops, cities, clothes, and manners between you and the organizing forces to cut off com- munication. All this begets in Jimville a state that passes explanation unless you will accept an explanation that passes belief.
Along with killing and drunkenness, covet- ing of women, charity, simplicity, there is 1 20 JIMVILLE a certain indifference, blankness, emptiness if you will, of all vaporings, no bubbling of the pot, — it wants the German to coin a word for that, — no bread-envy, no brother- fervor.
