Vocabulary: 45 out of 100
A work of about 27,500 words, novella length, with no text or reception detail to show its register. Without evidence of ornate or specialized language, it sits at a moderate midpoint, comparable to The Great Gatsby in scale of ambition rather than proven style.
Sentence structure: 45 out of 100
Nothing available shows how its sentences are built. A short work of this length gives no basis to place it above the accessible band, so it sits near The Great Gatsby's balanced prose.
Abstraction: 45 out of 100
Its subject cannot be confirmed from the evidence, so there is no basis for philosophical or theoretical density. It is placed in the accessible band, near To Kill a Mockingbird.
Information density: 38 out of 100
At roughly 27,500 words it is a compact work, and nothing indicates layered plots or heavy reference. It sits in the light-to-accessible range, closer to Beach Read than to The Great Gatsby.
Narrative indirection: 45 out of 100
No evidence describes its narration or how much a reader must infer. A neutral placement in the accessible band is the most that the form and length support.
Symbolic density: 40 out of 100

Ironic distance: 35 out of 100

Resolution withholding: 45 out of 100
Nothing indicates how the work ends. A short work gets a middle placement, between the closed endings of Beach Read and the open meaning of The Great Gatsby.
Structural complexity: 35 out of 100
