About this book

A brilliant young scientist named Griffin cracks the secret of invisibility by altering the way his body bends light, then finds he has no way to reverse it. H. G. Wells turns that trap into a tense study of a man coming apart. Griffin arrives as a swaddled stranger at a village inn, and once his condition is exposed his isolation hardens into paranoia, cruelty, and finally a scheme to rule by terror. Published in 1897, the book works as both a taut chase and a warning about intelligence let loose without conscience. It helped fix invisibility as one of science fiction's most enduring ideas.
