What reading level is The Riddle of the Labyrinth book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There were luminaries on the list, including the photographer Ansel Adams, the poet Gwendolyn Brooks, and the composer Gian Carlo Menotti. Also on the list, receiving the first major award of her career, was Alice Kober. The $2,500 stipend would free her from teaching for twelve months, time she could devote without interruption to Linear B.
Congratulations streamed into Brooklyn. Sir D’Arcy Wentworth Thompson, a Scotsman who was, in Kober’s words, “one of the ‘grand old men’ of classical schola...rship,” wrote her, “Your learning is great, your courage is immense, and your problem is altogether delightful.” Leonard Bloomfield, the most eminent linguist of the first half of the twentieth century, sent Kober an even more arresting tribute. He wrote: “The very notion of your problem scares me.”
Kober arranged for a year’s leave from Brooklyn College, to begin on September 1. As the foundation required, she underwent a physical exam; in light of the devastating illness that would overtake her in little more than three years’ time, it is heartbreaking to read her doctor’s report today.
