Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison

5.0

An absolutely beautiful depiction of mid-century Afro-Americana. Ellison's connections between lack of identity and the black narrator's "invisibility" pull the reader into the snare of America's corrupt social system, both racially and socially (and, cross-referencing the two systems, Ellison brings up valid arguments against black scholars' ignorance and obstinacy towards back-country Blacks). I highly recommend the work to all who wish to be well-acquainted with the American literary canon.
