Griffin, a scientist devoted to research into optics, devises a way to make himself invisible but is unable to reverse his condition. Griffin arrives in the small English village of Iping, West Sussex, where he further attempts to undo the experiment. Completely covered in clothing and wrappings, the stranger is mysterious, sullen, and reclusive. Local townspeople soon regard him with suspicion.

Biographical Timeline

Mengenai Pengarang

H. G. Wells (1866-1946) was an English writer of novels, short stories, history, social criticism, and biography. He is thought by many to be the most distinct myth maker of his time. He envisioned such things as time travel, alien invasion, invisibility, biological engineering, and cosmic threats long before they existed or were conceived of by others. In addition to enjoying popular success, Wells was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature four times.
