Abstract
This research paper attempts to study the Negro problem of
identity and existence in the postwar American Negro novel
with special reference to the saga of survival and invisibility
of a nameless young black man in Ralph Ellison‟s Invisible
Man. The core of this study tackles the desperate quest, this
man is living in a blind, nihilistic, and a racist American
world, which denies his existence, and reduces him almost to
a non-entity making him ever more restless, possessed and
exhausted.
