What reading level is World Enough And Time book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

On 25 June 1650, five years after the House of Commons appointed him to be Commander-in-Chief of the Parliamentary forces, the Lord General, Thomas, Lord Fairfax, sent a letter resigning his command. He retired to his Yorkshire estates to pursue his scholarly and antiquarian interests and cultivate his garden. He was also concerned about the education of his daughter, Mary, then aged twelve. His choice of tutor was the young poet, Andrew Marvell, who was about nine years his junior. Such an appo...intment – given Fairfax’s love of poetry and learning, and his authorship of a collection of poems called The Employment of My Solitude – was inspired. It was also testimony to Marvell’s high esteem with the Puritan party, any Royalist dalliance clearly having been put aside. For Marvell, Nun Appleton would offer a relaxed ‘atmosphère familiale et puritaine’, as Legouis puts it.1 Lord Fairfax clearly had a great deal in common with his new tutor. Although a distinguished and courageous soldier in the Civil War he may have shared some of Marvell’s reluctance at the outset to take up the cause.
