I think the "It/Them" Jane Chord of Pride & Prejudice works quite well. The book chronicles shallow people doing almost nothing in places that cannot be named. Sounds like the world of common nouns and no verbs to me.

And has there ever been a more annoying literary convention/device than the "______shire" crap in P&P? If you can't use the real name, make one up! Makes the story very hard to read, as there are no proper nouns to which a reader can anchor themselves. Not that there is anything happening anyhow....
