The Invisible Man From The Invisible Man

  • How to dress, according to the book: H.G. Wells wrote, "The stranger came early in February . . . carrying a little black portmanteau in his thickly gloved hand. He was wrapped up from head to foot, and the brim of his soft felt hat hid every inch of his face but the shiny tip of his nose . . . his forehead above his blue glasses was covered by a white bandage, and that another covered his ears, leaving not a scrap of his face exposed excepting only his pink, peaked nose. It was bright, pink, and shiny just as it had been at first. He wore a dark-brown velvet jacket with a high, black, linen-lined collar turned up about his neck."
  • How to act: Be curt, almost to the point of seeming impolite. Don't let anyone touch your bandages, or even your clothes for that matter.
