  • Summary

  • Tonight, we’ll read the opening to “The Invisible Man”, a science fiction novel by H.G. Wells, published in 1897. The title of this story refers to a scientist named Griffin, whose devotion to the study of optics leads him to a remarkable breakthrough: he has invented a way to render oneself invisible. However, as Griffin eagerly tests his invention on himself, he soon realizes the consequences of his success – the inability to reverse the invisibility. This novel’s exploration of the profound implications of scientific discovery and its impact on the human condition resonated deeply with readers. "The Invisible Man" established Wells's reputation as a visionary genius who was the “father of science fiction”. — read by 'V' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!
