Invisible narra, a través de los ojos de un niño, una historia que podría ser la de cualquiera de nosotros. ¿Quién no ha deseado alguna vez ser invisible? ¿Quién no ha deseado alguna vez dejar de serlo? El problema es que nunca he llegado a controlar bien ese poder: A veces, cuando más ganas tenía de ser invisible, era cuando más gente me veía, y en cambio, cuando deseaba que todos me vieran, era cuando a mi cuerpo le daba por desaparecer.
