Recommendation
Wells write a novel in a very nice manner and in an interesting way. The story itself is also quite funny, I thought and many of the scenes played in my mind as slapstick. The Invisible Man is the ultimate story of an insane anti-hero, before insane anti-heroes became popular. Griffin himself becomes more and more pathetic as the story progress and from the comical start Wells moves away to a darker, subtle satire of small minds in small towns can be just as dangerous as any psychopath.
