Works of Persian Jewry

Can anyone recommend some significant writings from Persian Jewry? I would like to read what I can.

Rabbinical works, not Qaraite or anything super modern and reform or masorti if possible. I realize these classifications are somewhat meaningless once works are more than 200 years old, but I hope it is understandable what I’m looking for.

I do not mind if they are from 1100 or 1920, I’ve been searching all over and I can only find references so a few.

I found these sources but few references to texts of significant import other than hovot yehuda, which I cannot find online:
