Griffin begins the novel as a mysterious figure wrapped in bandages who rents a room at an inn in the English village of Iping. He soon reveals himself as an invisible man, having experimented with a dangerous chemical process that rendered him unseen by the naked eye. As Griffin struggles to cope with his invisibility and the isolation it brings, he becomes increasingly unhinged. He terrorizes the villagers, committing acts of violence and sabotage while attempting to find a way to reverse the process that made him invisible. The novel follows Griffin's descent into madness and his attempts to evade capture by the authorities and those who seek to stop him. Along the way, he encounters various characters, including the innkeeper Mr. Marvel, the scientist Dr. Kemp, and a host of others who become embroiled in his schemes. Ultimately, Griffin's unchecked ambition and disregard for humanity lead to his downfall. He dies a tragic and lonely death, undone by his own hubris and the consequences of his actions. ""The Invisible Man"" explores themes of power, identity, and the dangers of unchecked scientific experimentation. It remains one of H.G. Wells' most enduring and influential works, inspiring numerous adaptations in film, television, and other media.

Download or read book Calico Captive written by Elizabeth George Speare and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2001-10-29 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a Newbery Medal–winning author, an “exciting novel” about a colonial girl’s experience during the French and Indian War (Saturday Review). In the year 1754, the stillness of Charlestown, New Hampshire, is shattered by the terrifying cries of an Indian raid. Young Miriam Willard, on a day that had promised new happiness, finds herself instead a captive on a forest trail, caught up in the ebb and flow of the French and Indian War. It is a harrowing march north. Miriam can only force herself to the next stopping place, the next small portion of food, the next icy stream to be crossed. At the end of the trail waits a life of hard work and, perhaps, even a life of slavery. Mingled with her thoughts of Phineas Whitney, her sweetheart on his way to Harvard, is the crying of her sister’s baby, Captive, born on the trail. Miriam and her companions finally reach Montreal, a city of shifting loyalties filled with the intrigue of war, and here, by a sudden twist of fortune, Miriam meets the prominent Du Quesne family, who introduce her to a life she has never imagined. Based on an actual narrative diary published in 1807, Calico Captive skillfully reenacts an absorbing facet of history. “Vital and vivid, this short novel based on the actual captivity of a pre-Revolutionary girl of Charlestown, New Hampshire, presents American history with force and verve.” —Kirkus Reviews
