These fields may be similar from person to person, but no two fields will look the same. Each environment is ultimately different, as it comprises all of an individual’s experiences and feelings, many of which are unique to them. The life space is dynamic. Every day comes with new experiences. As individuals develop, learn, and change, their “person” will change and mold their life space. As for the plot, it's better to not know anything before reading it. Palahniuk draws his characters as caricatures but that is not a problem at all because that is simply not the point. Besides, the type of people he describes, are little more than caricatures in real life too.

If you don't plan on reading this book all in one sitting, don't start reading it. Chances are you'll just end up confusing yourself more, and who wants that?The novel presents a darkly humorous yet powerful commentary on the fragility of human relationships.

Ultimately, this is the best book ever (other than the original version), and reading Invisible Monsters for the first time was one of the most significant points in my life and led to so much for me. Invisible Monsters is nihilistic and cruel, while sensitive and deep at the same time. The point of it is not as simple as one may initially think. On the contrary, it has many sides, all of which are touched in multiple ways and in all possible manners. Nothing better than a book which describes the most extreme dysfunctionalities modern society brings about, in such a delicate and unpretentious manner. This part from the intro says a lot: While in hiding she is acquainted with three drag performers calling themselves “The Rhea Sisters.” The trio is Brandy’s benefactor, sponsoring all of her operations. Soon Brandy Alexander’s true identity is revealed: she turns out to be The Narrator’s brother, Shane, previously believed to have died from AIDS. Brandy/Shane endeavors to look like his sister, The Narrator through gradual surgical procedures. In a bizarre twist of fate, Brandy/Shane is actually trying to find her sister, ignorant of the Narrator’s real identity. The Narrator, who now assumes the identity of Daisy St. Patience leaves with Brandy. Together they travel the country, living by their wits, scamming people by pretending to be interested buyers of expensive houses or by selling/stealing drugs. The Shambler From the Stars” ( September 1935) by Robert Bloch is probably the best of all the Mythos tales featuring an invisible monster. Men playing with terrible tomes conjure up an invisible monster that snaps one of the men in half then becomes visible as it drains his blood. Art by Margaret Brundage Art by Vincent Napoli The Monster-God of Mamurth” ( August 1926) by Edmond Hamilton features an invisible labyrinth and a gigantic spider that is also unseeable that lives there. This was Hamilton’s premiere as a writer. For more, go here. Ar by Hugh Rankin

THE VERDICT

I bought this fabric because I thought it would make a nice panel for Shane," Mom says. "We just ran into some problems with what to sew on it." Invisible Threads” ( September October 1928) by Arthur J. Burks was a two-parter about men who left their bodies to travel as astral phantoms to confront rich men who had done evil in the world. Art by Hugh Rankin This cover for “Sunfire” doesn’t actually go with the story. I think it is based on Bierce’s “The Damned Thing”. Stevens’s story is a lost race tale with a giant centipede. That would have been a great cover!

The Thought-Monster” ( March 1930) by Amelia Reynolds Long has a monster that is a mental vampire. Like the Horla, it feeds invisibly on its prey. This story was filmed by Hollywood as The Fiend Without a Face (1958). The film certainly wasn’t going to have a monster you can’t see, so they made it look like a brain with a spinal cord. For more on this story and film, go here. The Fiend Without a Face (1958) So far it is pretty good. It says right from the start that you are going to read this book feeling like you are missing things and it's very true. The Hand of the Invisible” ( May 1928) by E. Irvine Haines is a ghost story about the Rough Riders of Teddy Roosevelt. Don’t fall in love with dead people. I just finished reading this, I dont know why but I was expecting a different story almost. Like the deleted scenes of a movie, not really like the extras. I had just bought IM on audio book and since I spend a lot of time driving, what I would do was listen to the book, then when I got home I would re-read what I had just listed to just to make sure I didn't miss anything, turns out the stories are either exactly the same or I missed something. I got to the end and there was no more "jump to chapter..." It just said "the end" so I went to the very last chapter and just read from there. Here's what Kurt Lewin had to say about the life-space in his book Field Theory as a Social Science:However, Gestalt psychologists were less interested in the individual “parts.” Gestalt Theory suggested that people perceived the “whole” over the individual parts. Today, Gestalt principles are still studied by designers, visual artists, and software developers who want to create a product or interface that is easy to understand.
