What reading level is The Life And Times of Tennyson book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

" Still, it was implied, though not directly asserted, that impartial criticism was forced to point out his inferiority to Alford. This inferiority con- sisted in three things. Alford had the ability to choose his subjects from a higher class, to conceive them with 366 LIFE AND TIMES OF TENNYSON greater distinctness, and to express his thought with more precision. But there was something worse behind. This the reviewer attempted sadly but man- fully to show. Tennyson, he said, ''must not set it... down to aridity and moroseness, if persons of riper years have regretted that his style was not sufficiently impregnated with thought; — that more mind was not apparent behind his words. " The remarks of the reviewer were manifestly those of one worthy of consideration ; for when it came to the display of lack of mind, his article was throughout the work of an expert.
The publication in 1836 of 'St. Agnes' in 'The Keep- sake' for 1837, and of the 'Stanzas' in 'The Tribute' of the latter year, awakened intense enthusiasm in the admirers of the poet.
