What reading level is The Red Shirt: Episodes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Crossing the square on our way to the port, I remarked two statues facing each other, and was told that they represented LoUio, a Roman augur, and San Gennaro. This contrast of Paganism and Catho- licism ; this co-existence of two worlds, of two civili- zations, of two contradictory traditions, which court one's attention at every step in the Neapolitan pro- vinces, is reflected in the inhabitants, in whom the subtlest talent and the grossest superstition are curiously blended. Vico and Pulcine...lla shake hands continually.
" Signor Syndic," I asked, pointing to the arch- bishop's outstretched arm, *' is San Gennaro defend- ing himself from the jettatura of the Pagan augur ?" " No, colonnello, he is blessing the faithful, par- doning the impious, praying for all ! " His attitude, 190 THE BED SHIRT.
as he spoke^ was fall of dignity; and I felt the merited reproof which my flippancy had incurred.
Just then we came in sight of the National Guard, handsome, stalwart men, who performed the ceremony of presenting arms with sufficient grace.
