1	Pride & Prejudice more books like this by Jane Austen It's hard to believe that Jane Austen wrote the sophisticated and acerbic PRIDE AND PREJUDICE when she was only 21 years old, in 1797.

9	Canterbury Tales more books like this by Geoffrey Chaucer The "Canterbury Tales" were originally planned to include over 100 stories, but Chaucer completed only 22.
