What reading level is The Triumph of Life a Novel book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
What a stagy lot they were, and how impossible! Probably to the un- initiated many would have been awe-in^iring — the fur- and-mane befools children. Perhaps to the inexperienced each of the notables would have appeared, in his way, a phenomenon, a kind of temperamental freak, a striking personality, unique and apart from the ordinary ruck of human nature. But Dolly, singularly gifted with a fac- ulty of social divination, knew better. Most were but types, hackneyed examples, of a class of huma...n plati- tudes. Notice, for instance, the wrecked virtuoso, a short man, painfully obese. He sat, as a rule, in a cor- ner with an air of everlasting lethargy, his sallow cheeks and the bulgy substructure of his chin effectually con- cealing whatever amazing collar and scarf-pin he may have boasted. The name of this melancholy poseur, va- riously mispronounced save for its final ski, signified Polish origin. According to the prevalent notion, he had once been a great violinist, but, alas! on a certain fateful night, of which there were numerous romantic legends, his instrument, a beloved Stradivarius, had been stolen from his room.
