Question on: SS1 Literature - Non-African Prose: The Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison

The narrator's invisibility changes over the course of the novel. At first, he is invisible to white society because they do not see him as a fully human being. However, he eventually comes to realize that he is also invisible to himself. He has lost his sense of identity due to the effects of racism and discrimination. By the end of the novel, the narrator has come to accept his invisibility, but he has also learned to define himself on his own terms.
