... by Edgar Allen Poe The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William Shirer The Third Man by Graham Greene Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison

... although chosing an apt translation will be important. Quality and even meaning varies widely. I would suggest Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison, although I'm not sure if that's considered modern or classic. I'd also put in a nomination for Henry Miller's Tropic of Cancer and Bur ...

I thought that was The Invisible Man but that was way before 1990. Could it be something that has a quote from The Invisible Man? Or am I barking up the completely wrong tree?

... I've not yet read and planned to purchase anyways. I also purchased Slaughterhouse-Five, The Wind in the Willows and The Invisible Man in order to get the free mystery book. They were each at a good price and I intended to buy them at some point as well, so I figured why wait. Now I ...

Invisible Man is one of my favorites, as is Fountainhead, but I'm not sure I'm stable or brave enough to conquer more than one Ayn Rand in a year---good luck!

... Once and Future King, Lord of the Flies, Pride and Prejudice, Native Son, Hamlet, The Kitchen God's Wife, and Invisible Man. I'm sure there were more. As for changes, I would recommend that they replace or add a few of Steinbeck's more humorous works or books of related short ...

A little late for the "E"s, but I have to agree with Dilsey that Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man is a masterpiece. And I read the whole bloody (and I mean that figuratively and literally) thing AND critiqued it for a class. :) My first choice for "F" is Fowles ~ I've read and very much enjoyed ...

I'd be keen to read The invisible man and The tin drum of Cariola's suggestions.

... of India's independence are switched in the hospital--one the son of poor Hindus, the other the son of wealthy Muslims. The Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison. African-American classic that really gets to the heart of what it must have felt like to be a non-person in mid-20th century America ...

... the rest of his output this year I may change my mind as I become more accustomed to his style. Many years ago I read The Invisible Man and really enjoyed it - I suspect it actually had a similar style to this one as I've come across them published together so I'll probably re-read it ...

... Brodie. I have the movie in my netflix queue, too - I imagine Maggie Smith is perfect as Miss Jean Brodie. How about Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison? An excellent, yet disturbing read.

Of those mentioned above I like: Madame Bovary The trial The tin drum The invisible man The adventures of Huckleberry Finn I would like to add The magic mountain by Thomas Mann I've read The enchantress of Florence and didn't like it at all, it might have put me off R ...

13. The Invisible Man- H.G. Wells. Quick read. Interesting really only for it's place in the development of science fiction and for the creation of the idea of an invisible man. Good adventure story, but not much lies beneath the surface. 3/5

... ago, but I think it was English 102 at the local community college. For that class, I read and wrote critical essays on: Invisible Man, Death of a Salesman, The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock, Araby, one of the short stories from Joyce's The Dubliners, and Barn Burning by Faulkner. T ...

Storeetlir - what class did you read Invisible Man for? I'm always fascinated by class reading lists.

Oh, yes, Invisible Man was so good! I studied it in a class I took a few years ago ~ had to write a critique on it so really got into the imagery, which was amazingly rich and layered. It was eye-opening for me, too. Recalling the bit about the battle royale still gives me the shivers.

Mine would be Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison. It's so well written, and I love the imagery in the first chapter (the one about the lightbulbs). The story itself is interesting (young man goes to school, gets kicked out, goes to New York, becomes a radical, etc etc), and eye-opening. To me, ...

... Malcolm X, The Color of Water by James McBride, the poetry and short stories of Langston Hughes, classics like Invisible Man, Native Son, and the works of Toni Morrison and Alice Walker. I may think of more, but this would be a good start.

The Invisible Man?

I finished The Invisible Man by H.G. Wells. I am now reading Rabbit is Rich by John Updike.

7. The Invisible Man by H.G. Wells - despite the extraordinarily long time it took me to read this book, I really did enjoy it. This book was also one of my 888 Challenge Books.

... fiction and one non-fiction so no possibility of confusing the two in my feeble little mind). I am reading Foxfire 2 and The Invisible Man. The Invisible Man is for my 888 Challenge. My book also includes The Island of Dr. Moreau which I will read as well.

I know it's an obvious choice, but I really loved Invisible Man.

2007, I picked 150 books to read. However, the last Harry Potter book completely ruined things for me and I had to desire to pick up another book until recently. I got around 50, if I was lucky (see http://www.librarything.com/talktopic.php?topic=6899). So, I'm not going to bite off more than I ...

Kell, I highly recommend Invisible Man. One of my favourites. The novel is very deep and can be a little confusing at times, but it is so worth it. One of the greatest African American novels of all time in my opinion. I'd put it up there with any American novels actually. I know it's almost ...

I finished Invisible Man and decided it was time for some light fare. I'm now nearly finished with Janet Evanovich's High Five and will follow that with Hot Six.

I'm reading Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man. I'm about 1/3 of the way into it. The writing style is lyrical and almost dreamy. I'm drawn into it although it's quite different from my usual reads.

I've finished Lucky, and am now reading Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison. I am completely immersed in the writing, it's wonderful.

... Son. I think it'd be a bit of a bore to read both one after the other due to such similarities in time periods with Invisible Man.

Reposted from Book Talk, since I didn't get much action there... I recently finished Invisible Man and wondered if anyone would like to discuss. I found the novel very slow to start, riveting in the middle, with a bit of a whimper ending. Great writing, incredible take on race at the time, and ...

I absolutely love Ellison's Invisible Man. It is dense and difficult to fully comprehend. I read it for a class in university, and it helps talking about a work as you're reading it with a professor. I know I would never have been able to appreciate so many of the great books I have read ...

I'm just finished Invisible Man, deciding to read a bit more off of the 100 best books/classics list, what have you. Anyone interested in talking about it? I thought it was great, definitely deserving of its place in classic literature, but I must say it took me a long time to get into it. Once I ...

... loved to read but we didn't have much money so books were few and far between. Anyway in the box were Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man and Richard Wright's Black Boy. It was my first inkling of race. I'd always lived in black neighborhoods, gone to black schools and churches but ...

... on my own...I hated it though, and considering we had just finished a huge project on The Grapes of Wrath before we read Invisible Man, I think I was a little tired of lengthy books!

littlebookworm - If you mean Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison, then I totally sympathize! I hated that book with a passion, although not as much as A Farewell to Arms. If you mean The Invisible Man by H.G. Wells, I can't sympathize because I've never read it!

... Meany though, and I'm going to give Wuthering Heights another chance. But some of the books that I've had to read (like Invisible Man and A Farewell to Arms) were pure and utter torture. Again, I blame that on the school. I haven't read Frankenstein yet, but it's definitely on my ...

I've read Invisible. I liked it, I thought it was different. I kind of guessed what was going on, but it didn't take away from the book. It would be good for those who like more psychological books.
