A young man graduating from college discovers his bisexuality and spends the next eight years alternately trying to face and deny the truth of his passions. By the author of Just As I Am. Reprint.
E. Lynn Harris's track record as a bestselling novelist began here, with the story of Raymond Tyler, who, after years of questioning his sexual identity, finds himself torn between a married male lover and Nicole, the talented actress with whom he imagines himself able to spend the rest of his life. With a rich cast of supporting characters and emotionally wrenching plot twists, this debut proved popular enough in a self-published edition to catch the attention of Doubleday, which bought the rights to Invisible Life and has published each of Harris's four subsequent novels, including two sequels, Just As I Am and Abide with Me.

This was my first E. Lynn Harris novel. It was good. I think I'll read the other series as time permits.

I don't know how this book is because I have never received it. I hate to write a bad review because it is not the writer's fault.

I had to see what all the hoopla was about after hearing his name after I read the WONDERFUL 2 books by Frederick Smith (now THOSE are worth reading!). This book was very good and I'm reading his others but not enjoying them as much. Very syrupy. Rather predictable, at least for far as something will happen to keep everyone confused.

E. Lynn Harris has one thing to his credit with this sorry attempt at a novel- that is he is probably the first to openly explore gay and 'down low' sexuality in the Black American context. But that is all this and his other books offer. His characters are undeveloped, as is the novel's plot. Making what could have been a rather interesting novel, quite boring. His writing is completely void of any kind of intrigue, vivid description, or even distinct style. One wonders how such poor writing, could have ever been published. Thankfully, I have not bought any of his books- and I will never borrow or read another!

This is Harris' first novel but this is the second novel I have read from him.My first was his latest,I Say A Little Prayer.This was a really well written book,currently I'm reading Just As I am.Sometimes I got a little confused at the message Harris was sending.Sometimes I feel like he's telling us,his audience,to be on the look-out for who's down-low because of all the diseases and that most people believe it only exists or originates from the gay community.Then sometimes I think he is comforting the actual gay people and letting them know they don't stand alone.I guess Harris pulls a multi-moral on us.Either way it was such a good read.KEEP IT UP HARRIS
