Boy, I just didn't get it. Some guy wears an invisible disguise, goes into and watches people at home to see how boring they are. Does that on and off for years. While trying to help a couple people he actually makes their situation worse.
He goes to a therapist and shows her himself invisible and visible tells her about his voyerisms. Everything he says is arrogant, unprovable, contradictory, snotty, lies and I kept wanting to shut the book but it was small and I figured I could torture my way thru it. It was torture. It was written like a novel "over everyone's head". But it was just to confuse the reader into bafflement. I had no idea what it was about, why it was written, who it's supposed to impress or what the general raison d'etre is. The therapist was a useless piece of shit, she was more of a recording device. She asked him nothing of importance, she never revealed anything of importance about him. She questioned him privately as you the reader would, like what's it like to be invisible? What's it like to watch people? Not as a therapist who is concerned about anyone's mental health. DUH.
Just plain stupid to me. Wasted days and wasted nights..... sometimes you pay that price for reading. Sorry dude, didn't get it. The ending was so strange too. WTF?? Now her husband is nicer to her. Congrats honey.
