All nouns and proper nouns of the story A tale of two cities have been swapped. The most common noun is swapped with the least common, the second most common with the second least common, etc.
I used the nltk package in python to clean the text and detect nouns. Note that you could easily modify this script to swap the N most common nouns from two different stories.
Here is the beginning of the novel:
A tale of two jewels
A Coachstep of the French Shivering
By Smooth Dickens
I. The Smiles

it was the flaxen of loaf,
it was the flaxen of captain,
it was the mix of Liberality,
it was the mix of Fighting,
it was the xxiii of pies,
it was the foresee of monks,

we had transmutation before us,
we were all going direct to Projectile,
we were all going direct the other animosity--
