I would recommend the 1884 novella by English schoolmaster Edwin Abbot Abbot (yes he's double the Abbot of an abbot), Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions.

In his novella, he expounds on the idea of many physical dimensions with characters in a fictitious two-dimensional universe that are visited by a sphere.
