Revue de l'intrigue du livre " The Invisible Man "

Attention Grabbing Opener

I want you to close your eyes and imagine that you are invisible.

Think about:

The jerks you could get revenge on.

The pranks you could play

The mayhem you could cause

The houses you could haunt

Within a few hours you could even get everyone in Edmonton to believe in miracles again.

Ok, now I want you to think about the drawbacks of being invisible.

Think about:

What happens when you pick something up? Would it become invisible or remain the same. Well maybe yes. Maybe everything you’re touching becomes invisible. So that means the floor under your feet becomes invisible? The wall when you lean against it? The whole structure of the house you’re in -- suddenly fading away, leaving only beds and couches and bureaus hovering amidst a tangle of plumbing?

Ok well, what if is the answer is no? Now its only you whose invisible. Then, when you pick something up it looks like it’s floating around. That might be convenient for haunting houses but not for much else. That would make you kind of conspicuous don’t you think? Someone see’s some random object floating around they yell GHOST! And in this era we pull out our and guns and shoot. (gun gesture) bang. No I’m kidding. Okay so uh, what happens to the food you’ve just eaten? The food would still be visible until it became part of you or maybe not? People would see globs and chunks of semi deformed food getting pulverised at around head height. And then these chunks moving slowly, stretching and dipping like an anaconda in the air, down your esophagus and then dropping down to your stomach and just lying there, slowly disintegrating. We won’t get into the parts after that like getting rid of all that waste and stuff.

Okay open your eyes. Once you start considering the specifics of invisibility, it becomes extremely complicated.

My book, The Invisible Man written by H.G.Wells is a crazy and action packed story based on a man who suddenly becomes invisible and slowly loses his sanity.

Plot Summary

The plot is simple and straightforward. Griffin, having rendered himself invisible with an earlier experiment, enters a town and sets up a lab in an inn where he works night and day to come up with a formula that will reverse his invisibility. When he slips up and accidentally reveals himself, he engages in immature and violent actions until he is forced to run and find a new hiding place. As more people become aware of his existence, his situation becomes more perilous. Finally, he stumbles into the home of a former college professor whom he assumes will be interested in his experiments and willing to help him. The doctor, Mr. Kemp, however, reads newspaper accounts of Griffin’s insane actions against people in the town and betrays his trust. Griffin is hunted down, caught and killed, whereupon he becomes visible again. The little, inconspicuous victim of some of Griffin’s behavior is left with the stolen money and the documents that explain Griffin’s experiments. The story closes with the suggestion that Marvel himself might try the experiments if only he could figure them out.

Protagonist

Griffin is the model of science without humanity. He begins his road to decline in college when he becomes so obsessed with his experiments that he hides his work lest anyone else should receive credit. When he runs out of money, he kills his own father-a crime that makes the rest of his crimes pale in comparison. He goes from scientist to fanatic when he begins to focus all of his attention merely on the concept of invisibility and neglects to think about
