How hard is Хайс to read?

Хайс scores 38 out of 100 for difficulty on ReadingRate, making it moderately challenging. The score is a weighted composite of nine measures: four of how hard the prose is to parse, five of how hard the meaning is to extract.

Vocabulary: 42 out of 100
At about 27,500 words, this is a short work, and nothing is recorded about its prose style. With no evidence of specialized or archaic language, a middle-of-the-road placement near The Great Gatsby's accessible register is the safest estimate.
Sentence structure: 42 out of 100
Nothing known about the sentence construction of this short work supports a high or low placement. A moderate-accessible estimate, near The Remains of the Day's measured syntax, fits the lack of evidence.
Abstraction: 45 out of 100
Nothing shows whether the book is philosophical or concrete. A middle estimate, between The Road and To Kill a Mockingbird, reflects that uncertainty.
Information density: 35 out of 100
The short length of roughly 27,500 words suggests a compact reading load, with no sign of encyclopedic scope. A light-to-moderate estimate, below The Great Gatsby, fits.
Narrative indirection: 45 out of 100
No evidence shows how directly the story is told. A middle-accessible estimate, near To Kill a Mockingbird, reflects the lack of signals for experimental narration.
Symbolic density: 38 out of 100
Nothing recorded suggests allegory or heavy motif use. An accessible estimate, near The Remains of the Day's restrained symbolism, is the cautious choice.
Ironic distance: 30 out of 100
No evidence indicates satire or an unreliable narrator. A low-to-moderate estimate, between It Ends with Us and The Great Gatsby, reflects this.
Resolution withholding: 40 out of 100
Nothing is known about the ending. A moderate-low estimate, between Beach Read's closure and The Great Gatsby's open meaning, is the cautious placement.
Structural complexity: 30 out of 100
A short work of about 27,500 words with no recorded formal features is likely to be fairly simple in structure. An estimate near the accessible band, above Beach Read, fits.
