The Invisible Man is a science fiction novella by H.G. Wells published in 1897. Wells' novel was originally serialised in Pearson's Magazine in 1897, and published as a novel the same year. The Invisible Man of the title is Griffin, a scientist who theorises that if a person's refractive index is changed to exactly that of air and his body does not absorb or reflect light, then he will be invisible. He successfully carries out this procedure on himself, but cannot become visible again, becoming mentally unstable as a result.

As desvantagens de ser invisível.

Apesar de a personagem obviamente tirar vantagem da sua situação, vamos entendendo todos os problemas advindos da sua invisibilidade. Esse foi o aspecto da obra que mais me agradou. A narrativa se perde um pouco na metade do livro, mas nos últimos capítulos as coisas voltam a ficar interessantes.
