   Beaucoup de bruit pour rien par William Shakespeare (Shuffy2)

   Shuffy2: Beatrice and Benedick & Lizzie and Darcy- there are some similarties! This is my favorite of Shakespeare's comedies! Two characters who love to spar with words, 2 couples who love each other, and a bad guy! Perfect mix...

   Femmes et filles par Elizabeth Gaskell (dawnlovesbooks)
10. 275
    Cranford par Elizabeth Gaskell (chrisharpe)

    chrisharpe: Both novels offer a similar sort of wry look at the foibles of the English classes in the 18th / 19th centuries. Both are so carefully observed and deliciously written that they remain classics.

    Chez les heureux du monde par Edith Wharton (SandSing7)

    SandSing7: Wharton is as American as Austen is British. Read both works for a comparitive "across the pond" view on the novel of manners.

    Comme une gazelle apprivoisée par Barbara Pym (lilithcat)

    lilithcat: Some Tame Gazelle was Barbara Pym's first book, but I would really recommend any of her works to admirers of Jane Austen.

    Diary of a Provincial Lady par E. M. Delafield (lydiabarr)

    lydiabarr: Austen and Delafield are often compared...both have shrewdly observational sense of humor and an elaborately deadpan style. I love them both.
