Explain the instance of his wickedness and rudeness which he showed to various people he came across with reference to the invisible man
Answers
Griffin was a wicked and rude man. There were many instances in the novel that prove this fact. He was rude to almost everyone he came in contact with. For example, Mrs. Hall, Mr. Hall, Mr. Teddy Henfrey, Dr. Cuss, Vicar Bunting, Mr. Marvel, his Jew landlord whose house he set on fire after becoming invisible and Dr. Kemp. He treated all the names mentioned above very rudely.
His wickedness could be judged from the fact that he robbed his own father who later had to commit suicide for shame. He never made efforts to tell people the truth. He was very wicked to Marvel also whom he compelled to do his errands against his willingness. His wickedness crossed all limits when did theft at vicar Bunting’s place. He did not even spare a man of Church!
His robbing the owner of theatrical company in Drury Lane, his experimenting with the cat and leaving it to her fate afterwards, and setting his landlord’s house on fire, murdering Colonel Adye and a rustic all prove that he was exceedingly wicked.
