The Drowned World

J. G. Ballard1962

Through Hydropunk

London under thirty metres of warm tropical water. Climate-hydropunk before climate had a name.

Through Apocapunk

Solar heat melts the ice caps and London becomes a tropical lagoon. An early climate-collapse novel more interested in the strange inner life of the survivors than in rescue.
