Laolu Adekanmbi _aolu7 — Excellent exploration of cultural conditioning of women which teaches them to place their power/worth outside themselves. Also interesting is that the novel fictionalizes the true event of the death of Mary Jo Kopechne in 1969.

G R nefryt — Schreibe gerade eine Arbeit über diese Fotos, sehr schön, wenn auch manchmal für meinen Geschmack etwas (ideenlos) sozio-dokumentarisch, aber das gleichen die wunderbaren Portraits wieder aus.

Ilya Gleikh ilyagleikh — ** spoiler alert ** The "contains spoilers" box for this review was ticked (checked) but the biggest spoiler possible for this novel is the title. Because of it the reader is excluded from the mystery that the residents of Iping experience at the beginning of the novel, when a very strange stranger comes amongst them. I was surprised to find that the first half of the novel is almost continually comical, even farcical at times, with the somewhat rustic denizens of the village of Iping made out largely as buffoons. The second half turns much more Tragic, when, in a fashion reminiscent of many Sherlock Holmes stories, The Invisible Man relates his tale to Dr. Kemp, a former acquaintance. A man of obsessive and ambitious genius is revealed, but one with a character flaw that in the end proves fatal. That flaw is no more complicated or rare than an uncontrolled violent temper, one which worsens to megalomaniacal, murderous rage as the life Invisible proves to be a curse rather than a boon. Temper is not the sole cause of Griffin's downfall, however; throughout he shows no moral misgivings about any crime he commits, even as those crimes become ever more desperate and serious and he seems driven by a belief that he is owed something (what is never really sepicified) as his due because of his immense scientific talent. It proved very unfortunate for him that he forgot the Golden Rule of Good Science: never experiment on yourself! The novel is a fast paced yarn and easy to read but does not show the descriptive genius of The War of the Worlds, written the following year.
