Edited to add this comment I made at lindahoyland's original post:

Here, I tried an experiment. First I got Anna Karenina off the shelf (blowing off a cloud of dust) and put in this sentence, from Chapter 31:

It was a stormy day; the rain fell all the morning, and the invalids with umbrellas thronged the gallery.

Result: Leo Tolstoy. OK, good. Then I had it analyze this:

Anna Karenina flew off in a spaceship.

Leo Tolstoy again.

Then, this:

Bilbo Baggins, Konstantin Levin and Humbert Humbert walked into a bar.

Result: Vladimir Nabokov. Damn, I think it reads more like Ernest Hemingway.
