EOD Phil: I've wanted to read this for years and finally got around to it. Griffin was more intriguing than I expected. At first, assuming one hadn't read the title, there was a mystery to what was wrong with the stranger. His madness progressed reasonably. Like Frankenstein's Monster, Griffin earned my sympathy, at moments. It makes me want to watch the classic movie. Considering when this was written, I give a pass to the stuffy writing. The premise made it unique and fantastic.

Christopher Jones: *speaker steps up to podium to give review*
Good evening,
Invisible Man is one of those rare novels that have changed the shape of American literature. This nightmare journey across the racial divide tells unparalleled truths about the nature of bigotry and its effects on the minds of both victims and perpetrators. Readers are ushered into a parallel universe that throws our own into harsh and even hilarious relief. Suspenseful and sardonic, narrated in a voice that takes in the symphonic range of the American language, black and white, Invisible Man is one of the most audacious and dazzling novels of our century.

Gregory S. Buzwell: The opening scenes of this novel are superb and evocative of any number of mystery stories. A stranger, his face heavily wrapped in bandages, arrives during a violent snow storm in a small out of the way town. Seeking shelter in a wayside inn his strange behaviour and secretive ways soon arouse suspicion, distrust and ultimately hostility. What makes this novel different from any other with a similar set-up is that the mysterious stranger isn't on the run from the law, or his partners in crime, but rather has put himself at odds with his fellow humans by his scientific, and brilliantly successful, experiments into invisibility. Something so keenly sought, and something which has long been a dream for many, turns out to be a curse beyond all imagining.
H.G. Wells was very good at portraying the dark flip-side of scientific research. For every brilliant scientific advance that helps mankind there is something destructive and unpleasant that crawls from the laboratory and causes misery and chaos. Having studied under T.H. Huxley Wells was uniquely placed among the popular authors of his day to address the debates surrounding the dark directions, and casually abandoned ethical...

Mary: I highly recommend this book. Very imaginative. Just the right length. Nicely written. I couldn’t figure out where it was headed, but the author held my attention to the very end.
I’m very impressed.
