What reading level is Victor Hugo; a Memoir And a Study book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Thus in many ways the real value of Hugo's thought is, if not quite lost, unpaired, even for the most sympathetic reader, by the choice of a form unsuitable to his talent. But, for all, that cannot be the last word on Victor Hugo's novels. Amidst all the obscurations which gather thickly about his genius in this field, such works as ' Les Misdrables ' and ' Les Travailleurs de la Mer ' show in every page GILLIATT ('TOILERS OF THE SEA'). 331 the hand of the master. There are potent qualities in ...the thought. Notwithstanding a certain specious epigrammatic brilliancy, due to the habit of dressing up odds and ends of remarks in unnaturally emphatic ways, there are below this coruscating surface large and solid layers of thought. Tlie character of Gilliatt, for instance, in ' The Toilers of the Sea,' is boldly and truly conceived — a lonely and unfriended man, whose undisciplined strength of body and soul is wasted in an unfruitful struggle with a fate with which he can nowhere intelligently grapple, and by which he is at last, in silent wonderment at the world about him, content to be destroyed, — the story, we judge, of many a strong unillumined soul in the darker strata of society — at least typical of much that takes place there.
