 Shadows of an Invisible Man - John Coughlin
It is in John's ultimate fate that we see perhaps the most interesting dissimilarity between Invisible Man and Brave New World, for unlike the narrator of Ellison's novel, John cannot separate himself from society - Mustapha Mond has determined that he will remain a part of it whether he likes it or not.
For the denizens of the Brave New World have by this time become infatuated with his exotic ways, and it is not long before they have hunted him down, forced him to conform to their will, and ultimately driven him to commit suicide out of an overwhelming sense of betrayal and guilt.
And unlike John, the embattled savage of Brave New World, whose desperation I recognized even as a child peering into a coloring book, the individuals in Invisible Man still have the power to make themselves heard and continue the grand cycle of applying their "individual vision" to the tapestry of society.
