Brother Jack and Supercargo are characters in which novel?

Brother Jack and Supercargo are characters in which novel?

• A. A Separate Peace
• B. Invisible Man
• C. Lord of the Flies
• D. The Great Gatsby

Answer: (B)

These character names point to a novel about a Black narrator navigating a society shaped by manipulation and power, with a faction called the Brotherhood led by Brother Jack and a scene featuring a figure known as the Supercargo. That pairing is unique to Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison, where Brother Jack drives much of the narrator’s experiences and the Supercargo appears in scenes that illuminate the book’s themes. The other works don’t include these characters: A Separate Peace centers on Gene and Finny at a prep school; Lord of the Flies follows boys stranded on an island with leaders like Ralph and Jack; The Great Gatsby focuses on Gatsby and his circle in the Jazz Age. So, the novel in question is Invisible Man.
