I'm reading Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions.

It's about a two dimensional world inhabited by sentient geometric shapes. One of the main characters, a square, discovers another dimension and sends everything into an uproar.

It was written 125 years ago and while it's a book about science/ math/ physics it also touches on a lot of the sociological issues of that time.
