What Happened When I Became Invisible

By Vincent J. Gardner

You may be invisible, but you can't hide from yourself.

Invisibility. We've all fantasized about it: The wrongs we'd right, the barriers we'd skirt, the insider information that would make us rich, the unrestricted access to whatever turns us on.

But that's the fantasy. This is the reality-or one man's version of it. The overwhelming knowledge that it can't be possible infects his every waking moment, undermines every decision, pollutes his dreams and drives him to find an answer, fast. Is he a freak, an experiment, a god or something else entirely? Is he insane? Should he see a doctor? How? And is he alone? Or are there others?

"Awareness of your presence is not triggered solely by the sight of your person. Your breath is audible, your heat noticeable, your movements make sounds and your weight depresses the fabric of the seat you're in. Everything gives you form-water, sweat, soap, makeup, dye, grass, dust, blood, tears, mud. Staying invisible is a chore and a half."

"I bet. Still, I certainly didn't notice you lurking in the park, all the times I visited."

"Because you weren't looking for me. No one has a clue what they're missing, because they don't know to look for it, to look closely. God only knows what's out there, if we knew to look for it."

What Happened When I Became Invisible is just one of Vincent Gardner's books.
