Before I read it I thought it would be one of those banal Toni Morrison types of work but when I read it I found it to be an incredible piece of literature.

Amen to that! Toni Morrison is unfit to even breathe the name of Ellison.

A lot of "Black" literature out there is really terrible. Mostly banal stuff. However, The Invisible Man is one of the best novels ever written. The fictionalized Tuskeegee Institute was really interesting plus a lot of the stuff with his party (communist but not specifically identified) in the book. Ellison also brutally satirized liberal whites. BTW, did you notice that we never did learn the name of the main character in the book? I wonder why it was never made into a movie?
