Invisible Man

      As you have studied Invisible Man, you have gained a fuller understanding of how literary devices and other text elements contribute to a reader’s understanding of the novel. Now, you will begin drafting an analytical essay in which you use textual analysis. You will be writing a multi-paragraph essay of 750–1000 words in which you answer the following questions: How does a person become an individual? How is an individual shaped by cultural and social forces? You will use excerpts from Invisible Man to answer this question in a well-structured essay that includes an effective introduction and conclusion and logically organized ideas. Remember also to write clearly, using a natural voice to engage your audience, and cleanly, using correct punctuation, capitalization, spelling, and other linguistic conventions.
