A mysterious stranger arrives at a rural Sussex inn on a cold winter’s night with his face obscured by bandages and his body cloaked in a long, heavy coat. He locks himself in his room and spends his stay labouring over chemicals in intricate glass bottles. The villagers, bewildered by what lurks under the bandages, could never be prepared for the terrible that the man is a scientist who has rendered himself invisible and is desperately struggling to find an antidote. He flees to the rugged, cliff-lined coast, where, under the pressure of isolation and pursued by police and an angry mob, he is intent on murderous revenge.

H. G. Wells - O Homem Invisível.
Rapaz, esse livro foi bem doido, assim como, o próprio homem invisível!
É um livro bem curto, com uma leitura boa!
H.G. Wells trouxe, nesse livro, como o ser humano pode ser ambicioso e pensar só em si próprio. Traz também que a invisibilidade tem o seu lado ruim, e bota ruim nisso!!!
Que agonia ler certas partes, eu ia surtar se fosse comigo! E ia esquecer, com toda certeza, que estava invisível, assim como, o personagem esqueceu, e cometeu muitos erros!
O terror nesse livro é diferente! Por isso pode acabar decepcionado um pouco!
Mas valeu muito poder saber o desenvolvimento dessa história!
PS: Que venha logo o Drácula!!!!
هذه المراجعة تحتوي على حرق للأحداث.
Es muy entretenido en general, siento que es un buen libro para pasar el rato y sin que sea una lectura tan complicada. Lo recomiendo a aquellos lectores que estan empezando por leer clasicos que no sean pesados.
Aunque en los últimos capitulos es predecible lo que le va a pasar al hombre invisible, pero es interesante la forma en que ambientan y cómo trabajan juntos.
Le pongo un puntuación de 3.5/5 ya que siento que el autor debió agregar algún motivo por la que el antagonista quisiera ser invisible además de ser reconocido, sino no habría manera de que él quiera acabar con todos solo porque se le pintó.
A gripping and entertaining tale of terror and suspense as well as a potent Faustian allegory of hubris and science run amok, The Invisible Man endures as one of the signature stories in the literature of science fiction. A brilliant scientist uncovers the secret to invisibility, but his grandiose dreams and the power he unleashes cause him to spiral into intrigue, madness, and murder. The inspiration for countless imitations and film adaptations, The Invisible Man is as remarkable and relevant today as it was a hundred years ago. As Arthur C. Clarke points out in his Introduction, “The interest of the story . . . lies not in its scientific concepts, but in the brilliantly worked out development of the theme of invisibility. If one could be invisible, then what?”
