H. G. Wells's The Invisible Man is about a man, named Griffin, who has discovered the science to turn living organisms invisible. Griffin the main character of the story, does many more experiments on other organisms, but in one of his experiments he turns himself invisible. He starts to realize that, with the power of being invisible, he can do whatever he wants. The law can not do anything because they can not find him. So Griffin, being the "all powerful" man that he thinks he is, starts to commit various crimes.
Griffin ends up leaving the area, and goes to try somewhere else. He wonders into a little town called Iping, he soon realizes that he does not like being invisible, so he tries to do more experiments to turn himself visible again. People start to get suspicious and soon patrols are set out, doors are locked, and even windows are barred. He becomes very enraged because there are no more accessible supplies.
This story has one of the best illustrated writing styles, that I have read in a long time. This story has slang, matter-of-fact comments, and the tone seems to be rather angry. The Invisible Man has many scripted words and phrases that almost literally include the reader into the story. I recommend this book to any and all who love; drama, action, suspense, and an irregular type of mystery.
