What reading level is The Little Gods Laugh a Novel book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Had they not been staying in the same house, the situation might have contained elements of relief for Nita, a certain lifting of responsibilities. As it was, the daily encounters under the eyes of half a hundred more or less gossip-loving women, whose curiosity, long since aroused, had been on the qui vive from the moment Elsie rushed through the hall in tears, were distinctly disagreeable. Nita knew her world far too well not to be perfectly aware of the kind of thing that was being said. And... she could not defend herself by word or deed, for 230 THE LITTLE GODS LAUGH departure would have taken on the semblance of flight.
This for a very few days ; then personal mat- ters were submerged in the anxiety with which she watched the incredibly swift gathering and breaking of the war cloud. Many of the peo- ple caught in the war zone were acquaintances of hers ; some of them were her friends. Then came the President's proclamation of neutral- ity, the dread of panic, the closing of the New York Stock Exchange, and keenly felt by patriotic Nita, in whose veins ran the blood of those brave men and women who founded colonies and built a nation the shame of the United States' failure to protest against the rape of Belgium.
