SCIENCE FICTION
The Invisible Man
by H.G. Wells
Publisher Note:
This masterpiece of science fiction is the fascinating story of Griffin, a scientist who creates a serum to render himself invisible ...
Troy Note:
Wells, again, demonstrates that his mind rode on the creative concord of his time. This story is very authentically told with an extraordinary eye for the details given the extraordinary scenario. There is no question that imaginative abilities like this are not pedestrian. The only flaw resides in the fact that this scientist was smart enough to make his internal organs and skin invisible but did not have a convention to garner transparent apparel. Our hero therefore has to wander the streets of winter-time London buck naked. Thought of everything but the clothes. Damn the details!
