.."Despite the plethora of information already available about Ellison’s great work, this volume will be a welcome edition for students. Its formula, which includes covering many aspects of Invisible Man using various writing styles, embodies Rankin’s characterization of the novel having “universal appeal.” This approach will help to provide a new generation of readers with tools for connecting with Ellison’s unnamed protagonist. To paraphrase the novel’s famous last line, this book speaks to us on many different frequencies." - Against the Grain
