The Drowned World
An extraordinarily powerful novel, The Drowned World takes place in a future where the greenhouse effect has transformed Northern Europe into a flooded tropical swamp.
The atmosphere of malaise and decay is utterly convincing and I feel haunted by it.
This is one the finest books I’ve ever read and I get the feeling this will linger in the memory for a long time.
Recommended without hesitation.
