Description
An Apple Books Classic edition.
“Alone-it is wonderful how little a man can do alone! To rob a little, to hurt a little, and there is the end.” What would you do if you were became invisible? Would you use that power for good, or would you become consumed with the freedom it afforded you? Griffin, the antihero of H.G. Wells’ classic novel, definitely belongs to the latter school of thought. A misunderstood genius with albinism, Griffin has suffered taunts and isolation his whole life. As he descends into madness, his plans become far darker than simple revenge on those who have wronged him.
In addition to this creepy novel, H.G. Wells-who is widely seen as the father of science fiction-also wrote The War of the Worlds, The Time Machine, and The Island of Doctor Moreau;. Besides killer plots, his work provides chilling insight on human nature. The Invisible Manis a story about cruelty, curiosity, and unfettered power. Read it-and you’ll immediately notice its inescapable influence on modern literature, movies, and comic books.

5By Nernemsaa.Gtwo thumbs up My favorite book of all time.Not bad
4By ThecriricI loved the action mystery and suspense in the story. The people of Iping share an ambivalence towards the idea of an invisible man in the area. Many others are suspicious of the stranger staying there. There are many advantages and disadvantages to being invisible. But when faced with large numbers the invisible man is not invisible anymore.3/5
3By CassieAlsoCassHonestly, it’s not bad because I kept on and finished it, but it didn’t blow me away. I have to fish for any meaning, it’s not staring me directly in the face or anything.Exciting
