What reading level is The Rise of Silas Lapham book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
With the Coreys it was something more thanan affair of sentiment. They were by no means poor, and they were notdependent money-wise upon Tom Corey; but the mother had come, withoutknowing it, to rely upon his sense, his advice in everything, and thesisters, seeing him hitherto so indifferent to girls, had insensiblygrown to regard him as altogether their own till he should be released, not by his marriage, but by theirs, an event which had not approachedwith the lapse of time. Some kinds of gir...ls--they believed that theycould readily have chosen a kind--might have taken him without takinghim from them; but this generosity could not be hoped for in such agirl as Miss Lapham.
"Perhaps, " urged their mother, "it would not be so bad. She seemed anaffectionate little thing with her mother, without a great deal ofcharacter though she was so capable about some things. " "Oh, she'll be an affectionate little thing with Tom too, you may besure, " said Nanny. "And that characterless capability becomes the mostin tense narrow-mindedness.
