Going about as far in the opposite direction of Regency Romances, we have "The Storyteller Essays" by Walter Benjamin.
Benjamin is a favorite of Larry McMurtry's and so I decided to give it a go. They were just short little essays Benjamin wrote in the 1930s, and I was really amazed at how relevant they still are today (I don't know why I was amazed: Michel de Montaigne died in the 1500s and his writings still resonate). It was a short book, but packed full of interesting thoughts.
