Question

life become very difficult for griffin after he became invisible . explain

Answer 1

Griffin was obsessed with the idea of becoming invisible because he wanted to end all his troubles with it. He thought after becoming invisible he would have the impunity to do whatever he chose. He could do anything and escape by being invisible. No person could hold him. He could take his money where he found it.

However, after becoming invisible his joy was just short lived. He soon realized many disadvantages of being invisible. The first and foremost disadvantage was the cold. The extreme cold climatic condition in London during winter could not be faced without clothes. In order to become invisible, Griffin had to take all his clothes off. Being clothe less would soon freeze him to death.

The second disadvantage was the rain and the snow. He realized when it rained and snowed, his presence was liable to be detected as the water would trickle down him making him visible; similarly, snow would also make an outline on his shoulders and head making him visible. He could easily be caught and imprisoned.

The fourth disadvantage was he had neither any home nor any shelter where he could hide himself. He did not want to confide his secret of invisibility to anyone, as he had no friend. He feared no one would believe him. He also feared if he confided to anyone he could betray him. Seeing so many disadvantages that could endanger his survival, he felt being visible was far better than being invisible. So he wanted to be visible again. But he did not how to become visible. He needed a quiet place where he could carry his experiments on becoming visible again. He made a plan to cover himself thoroughly until he was successful with his experiment of becoming visible.

Answer 2

Griffin could not wear clothes as they would make him visible. As a result, the cold weather with snow and rain in London made him feel really uncomfortable because he was naked.

Another problem that Griffin encountered was that he could not eat in public. He found that whenever he did so, people stared at him because eating with an invisible mouth is actually impossible.

A third problem was that although he was invisible, dogs could get his scent and kept following him wherever he went.
