Query: drowning dreams

Before climate change there was radiation and fears of the nuclear, but in this 1962 novel the seas have risen just the same and the remaining cities of the old world, flooded, supra heated, abandoned, reverting back to the prehistoric are all that remains.As much a novel of the psychological reversion as it is to do with any plot or great events, this is a strange but compelling kind of science-fiction. It is one of Ballard's earliest work and his language is ornate and his love of the extravagant simile here in abundance.
