Description

Invisible Man is Ralph Ellison’s only novel and is widely acknowledged as one of the great novels of African-American literature.

The narrator of Invisible Man is a nameless young black man who moves in a 20th century United States where reality is surreal and who can survive only through pretense. Because the people he encounters ‘see only my surroundings, themselves, or figments of their imagination.” he is effectively invisible. He leaves the racist South for New York City, but his encounters continue to disgust him. Ultimately, he retreats to a hole in the ground, which he furnishes and makes his home. There, brilliantly illuminated by stolen electricity, he can seek his identity.
