What reading level is The Secret City book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
That strange shining Nevski of the night before was a dream. Someone in the tram said something about rifle-shots in the Summer Garden, but no one listened. As Vera had said last night we had, none of us, much faith in Russian revolutions.
I went up in the lift to the Propaganda office and found it a very niceairy place, clean and smart, with coloured advertisements by Sheppersonand others on the walls, pictures of Hampstead and St. Albans and KewGardens that looked strangely satisfactory and h...omely to me, and rathertouching and innocent. There were several young women clicking away attypewriters, and maps of the Western front, and a colossal toy map ofthe London Tube, and a nice English library with all the best books fromChaucer to D. H. Lawrence and from the _Religio Medici_ to E. V. Lucas'_London_.
Everything seemed clean and simple and a little deserted, as though theheart of the Russian public had not, as yet, quite found its way there. I think "guileless" was the adjective that came to my mind, andcertainly Burrows, the head of the place--a large, red-faced, smilingman with glasses--seemed to me altogether too cheerful and pleased withlife to penetrate the wicked recesses of Russian pessimism.
