1.	How would you justify the end of the novel The Invisible Man?
Answer» H.G. Wells introduces poetic justice to the story and gets Griffin killed as his powers were used against mankind. However innovative and ambitious plan may be, if it proves fatal to the mankind it needs to be curtailed. As such the ending is thoroughly justified. Though Griffin deserves punishment, his violent killing on the part of the public was too severe. It wast unwholesome and surprising that undeserving and a turn coat Marvel got hold of Griffin’s money in the end. On the other hand it was right that Marvel, who could not do anything of the formulae of invisibility, was found to have the books otherwise they could be misused by Kemp or if not by him, by any other scientist. In thus punishing Griffin so severely Wells expresses his own intolerance for depraved people like Griffin whose genius cannot absolve him from the grave injury to society.
