I'm on page 139 of The Invisible Man by H.G. Wells- this is where Mr. Cuss and Mr. Bunting are rummaging through the Invisible Man's belongings. Suddenly the inn door opens and Mr. Marvel enters. They disregard him and begin studying the books again when an unseen force grabs each of them by the neck and begins pounding their heads on the table between questions about what they are doing with his things. The man demands his belongings, saying he wants his books and some clothes. This part, to me is awesome. It's the inner workings of the man. I felt as if I could connect to this, as if someone was attempting to rummage through my things, I would probably want to assault them as well. The man is still very calmly aggressive when he speaks. This is shown when he says "When I came into this room, I did not expect to find it occupied." (139).
