What reading level is Thirst book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
2.Lord God, mercy is in your hands, pourme a little. And tenderness too. Myneed is great. Beauty walks so freelyand with such gentleness. Impatience putsa halter on my face and I run away overthe green fields wanting your voice, yourtenderness, but having to do with onlythe sweet grasses of the fields againstmy body. When I first found you I wasfilled with light, now the darkness growsand it is filled with crooked things, bitterand weak, each one bearing my name.
3.I lounge on the grass, that’s ...all. Sosimple. Then I lie back until I aminside the cloud that is just above mebut very high, and shaped like a fish.Or, perhaps not. Then I enter the placeof not-thinking, not-remembering, not-wanting. When the blue jay cries out hisriddle, in his carping voice, I return.But I go back, the threshold is alwaysnear. Over and back, over and back. ThenI rise. Maybe I rub my face as though Ihave been asleep. But I have not beenasleep. I have been, as I say, insidethe cloud, or, perhaps, the lily floatingon the water.
