THE DROWNED WORLD marked j. G. Ballard's emergence as a major writer, one of the most original of our time. Technically brilliant, dazzingly inventive, Ballard uses fantasy to reflect the aberrations of contemporary society and to penetrate its labyrinthine passages. This early novel by the author of CRASH and EMPIRE OF THE SUN is at once a fast-paced narrative, a stunning evocation of a flooded, tropical London of the near future and a speculative foray into the workings of the unconscious mind.

BIRDS!

ngl i internalized basically none of the plot other than the fact that there was all this drama over time and nature reverting to the triassic but because of the time it was written it describes lizards turning into dinosaurs while birds, like humans, aren’t adapting and so the whole time i was reading i was like “look me in the eye and tell me chickens wouldn’t revert to dinosaurs immediately if given the chance!” also like racism and sexism and whatnot
