I'll recommend you to the author Henry James. He's a romantic, and much of his way of writing is beautifully easy to digest, with clear reason and intent behind why he writes.

He is an author who lived from 1843 to 1916, which is right around when our current English language stopped evolving so quickly. So much of what you will read from him is applicable to the English language of today (as opposed to other great authors from earlier, such as Laurence Sterne, where the language is understandable but many nuances have evolved). I suppose I should also mention John Milton and E.M. Forester as verbose but easy to understand authors.

When you're learning, don't be afraid to read slowly. Note the way in which articles (a, the) are used. For example, the importance of an object can be established whether it is the piece, or whether it is a piece. To this example, James Joyce has a novel, "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man". It is just a portrait, but it is of the man.
