What reading level is Yekl; a Tale of the New York Ghetto book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The low-ceiled room was fairly crowded with men and women. Besides the princi- pal actors in the scene, the rabbi, the scribe, and the witnesses, and, as a matter of course, Mrs. Kavarsky, there was the rabbi's wife, their two children, and an envoy from Ma- mie, charged to look after the fortitude of Jake's nerve. Gitl, extremely careworn and 175 176 YEKL.
haggard, was "in her own hair," thatched with a broad-brimmed winter hat of a brown colour, and in a jacket of black beaver. The rustic, " ...greenhornlike " expression was com- pletely gone from her face and manner, and, although she now looked bewildered and as if terror-stricken, there was noticeable about her a suggestion of that peculiar air of self- confidence with which a few months' life in America is sure to stamp the looks and bear- ing of every immigrant. Jake, flushed and plainly nervous and fidgety, made repeated attempts to conceal his state of mind now by screwing up a grim face, now by giving his enormous head a haughty posture, now by talking aloud to his escort.
