• "...sometimes compared with Eudora Welty," is sensible: adding "...Charles Dickens, Jane Austen, and Henry James." tips the thought over the edge into bathos. Comparing Hortense Calisher to Eudora Welty is a commonplace. Has anyone actually made these other comparisons? Is Jane Austen included because she is a woman? --Wetman 04:42, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
