What reading level is The Sleeping Sword book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The two conditions, it seemed, had blended together, had perhaps always simultaneously existed, the condition of failure gradually becoming the stronger until it had absorbed the other.
I had allowed the silence to fall between us because I had been too weak to break it and when I regained my strength I could think of nothing to say. Gervase brought me home from Galton. He enquired carefully as to the progress of my health, ate his dinner more often than not at my table, slept in my bed. He ...gave me his escort and his company when the social niceties required it. He behaved, in public, as a husband and I as a wife, and in private we remained polite.
We even became lovers again, or rather he reclaimed his conjugal rights, since I could not glorify what passed between us by the name of love-making; his body, which had turned its fastidious back to me all night, being drawn to mine sometimes in the moment of half-waking, a performance part duty, part need, which any nameless female could have satisfied and during which I lay quite still, as nameless females do, despising myself for this submission, despising him for accepting it.
