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

This latter is our opinion ; and that is the reason we insist so strongly on the right of allowing some originality or initiative in the selection of subjects by teachers or pupils.
A simple example will suffice to show how in one department alone immense trouble is taken in one manner of handling a very common subject which practically is of no utility whatever in after life, except to a chosen few ; and no trouble whatever is taken in teaching the same subject in that manner, and under that a

How many children in any National School in Ireland will be called upon in their after lives to read aloud either to an individual or some select gathering ? How many will become professional elocutionists ? One boy out of five hundred will be a clergyman, and must read distinctly and with a certain grace. One girl out of ten thousand may be a companion to a lady, who may require her to read for her at night, or during illness. The remaining legions will never, as a rule, be called upon to read distinctly, pronounce correctly, or understand the proper emphasis of words or phrases.
