What are the meanings of these words in The Lovely Bones? "There was a mirror on the shelf, and a razor and shaving cream. I thought that was odd. Wouldn't he do that at home? But I guess I figured that a man who had a perfectly good split-level and then built an underground room only half a mile away had to be kind of loo-loo." (The Lovely Bones) What does a perfectly good split-level mean? And what about the word loo-loo? Thank u.

A split-level refers to a type of house with a floor mid-way between the bottom and top floors. "Loo-loo" is slang for crazy.

I know this doesn't answer your question, but I believe it has been answered correctly & thoroughly already. That book was so disturbing to me. I couldn't bring myself to watch the movie.

Interesting, in the movie, it didn't look like the guy's home was actually split level.
