To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Wing Fo recog- nized him as the conductor of the lottery com- pany.
But the strangest of all was the sum of the characters composed thereon.
Each lottery company has its own style of tickets. Some use numerals; others use ex- cerpts from the poems of some great sage. But this was neither an extract from the books of Confucius nor a quotation from Chung-tzu, but the portrayal of a beautiful girl.
Wing Fo recognized the picture-signs in- stantly as the description of the Desert Lily. And the patt
...ern took her form and she looked down and smiled on him.
He awoke with a start. The vision burned in his mind twofold more than the smarting of his hurts. As he staggered to his feet he looked about in alarm to see if the field-boss had ob- served him asleep. He longed for the coming of night so that he might obey the command of his dream, for, born of a superstitious race, he believed in dreams.
And when night came he made obeisance be- fore a miniature porcelain joss in the bunk house, chewed some sacred lotus root, said a prayer to his departed ancestors for their spir- itual assistance in his venture, then set out over the moon-bathed seed fields to the town of Gilroy.
