Have you ever felt like you were invisible, like you weren't there or like you didn’t matter? That’s how the invisible man feels living in Harlem in the 1930's, which is the prime of segregation, racism and inequality.
This relates to the hero theme because all throughout of the novel he was seen as s person who was not a hero even though he would do hero like thing.
I loved this novel. I think it was a good to novel to read during black history. And I also feel like anyone could read it and relate to it, but I honestly feel like it would be relatable to people of color.

“Their Eyes Were Watching God” is a wonderful novel to add to the “Search for Self” category. This novel starts out with a young girl name Janie. This takes place around the mid 1910’s so this is at racism’s prime. Although it does take place when racism is strong in the south the reader really doesn’t see much of racism. This is because the main character, Janie, lived in an all black town. This story is told through Janie’s point of view while she is talking to her friend. She tells of her life and what she has been through. Such as her relationships with the different men in her life and how she has gotten to the place in her life now.
This novel connects to our “search for self” theme because that is what Janie is doing throughout the novel. When the novel begins when Janie is a small child and it ends when Janie feels that he life is almost complete and she is reflecting on it.
I hold this book on high regards. I think that it’s a really good read and it’s not hard at all. I think that anyone can read this book and a piece of them can relate to this novel.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to live in your own perfect word by yourself? That is what Alex Garland portrays in the novel The Beach.
Richard, the main character, is originally from London and is now. While he was staying at a guest house in Bangkok he meets a French couple, Etienne and Francoise, and has a confrontation with a man named Mr. Duck. The next day Richard finds that Mr. Duck has killed himself and left a map for Richard. Richard then sees that on the map is a beach that cannot be reached by tourists. He then tells Etienne and Francoise of the map so they all decided to go along and find this secret place. On the way to find the beach Richard, Francoise and Etienne meet two American guys named Sammy and Zeph. These five people then make their journey to find their own beach utopia. But when they get to their own paradise they realize that they are not the only ones there.
In the novel the people on the beach tried to create this perfect society. They cut off themselves from the rest of society so they could have their utopia. But their utopia soon turns into a dystopia when the outsiders, Richard, Francoise, Etienne, Sammy & Zeph, come and disrupt their paradise.
I have a very high opinion of his novel. I think that it’s a good read especially for teenagers. For me it was really easy to read and on top of that it was also interesting.
