You could also try some from Benito Pérez Galdós ("Fortunata y Jacinta", for example). I like a lot Galdós... it find him similar to Victor Hugo.
Regarding "alive" authors, you could try something from Eduardo Mendoza, or Gonzalo Torrente Ballester ("Crónica del rey pasmado" is short and quite funny). But I'm afraid they are not avalaible as ebooks.
Hope this helps,
