The Invisible Man

In the midst of a February snowstorm, a strange lodger appeared at the inn near the railway station. His face was wrapped in bandages, and his eyes were hidden behind dark glasses. The mystery and desire for complete solitude, of course, gave rise to many rumors, but the truth turned out to be shocking even for those who suspected the stranger of being a fugitive criminal.
Behind the bandages and dark glasses hides not a fugitive, but the brilliant scientist Griffin, who discovered the secret of invisibility. But instead of triumph, he faces a nightmare: the impossibility of simple human communication, forced reclusiveness, paranoia, and a gradual transformation into a vengeful monster.
The famous novel by the founder of science fiction, Herbert Wells, has inspired numerous adaptations, interpretations, and reimaginings. We offer you a new, modern translation by Vitaly Tulaev, who managed to recreate the captivating, almost detective atmosphere and philosophical depth of this work.
