 Invisible ManRalph EllisonSet in the U.S. during the pre-Civil Rights era, when Jim Crow segregation laws denied black Americans basic rights, Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man follows a young, college-educated black man's struggles to survive dangerous situations and to succeed in a racially divided society that refuses to see him as a human being. Although the protagonist undoubtedly has a name, Ralph Ellison chose to keep his character nameless and "invisible" throughout the novel. Search this CliffsNote
