What does /lit/ think of invisible man? Started reading it yesterday and this is my favorite quote so far:
"Once when I asked for a cigarette, some jokers gave me a reefer, which I lighted when I got home and sat listening to my phonograph. It was a strange evening. Invisibility, let me explain, gives one a slightly different sense of time, you're never quite on the beat."

I want to read it badly but school is currently getting in the way of my education. I heard it was Kafkaesque, is this true?

yes and its a little bit of everything honestly. I'd say just read for 10 minutes a night. The book is very episodic and manageable.

Is it bad I kept confusing Harlan Ellison with this guy?

I read this book 6 years ago as summer reading for AP English, the only part I remember vividly is the part where they make them fight each other and they get boners that are visible through their boxers, but I don't remember why they got said boners.

Honestly amazing novel. The symbolism borderline punches you in the face throughout, though, but if you're a sucker for that there's no reason you shouldn't enjoy it. Also, Communists btfo by Ellison, how can they ever recover?
