太阳辐射的波动融化了极地冰盖，使整个星球陷入难以忍受的高温新 Triassic Age。London 变成了一片沼泽；茂密的热带植被沿着 Ritz 酒店的墙壁攀缘而上，有人甚至看到原始爬行动物在刚形成的新泻湖中穿行游动。一些人逃离了首都；另一些人则留下来，打着科学或盈利的旗号推行肆无忌惮的计划。正当人们抽干 London 被淹没的街道以搜寻宝藏时，无畏科学家团队成员之一的 Robert Kerans 博士逐渐接纳了这座水下城市，并发现自己莫名地抗拒离开的念头

我猜是像厄休拉·勒古恩的《黑暗的左手》和 J. G. 巴拉德的《沉睡的溺死世界》（The Drowned World）这类近期的作品吧。谁能想到科幻小说除了外星人入侵和廉价纸浆书封面上衣着暴露的女人之外，还能写出别的样貌？
I guess such recent works as Ursula Le Guin's The Left Hand of Darkness and J. G. Ballard's The Drowned World, among others. Who knew that sci-fi could be something else than alien invasions and scantily clad women in pulp covers?
《摩天楼》（High Rise）可能是他最好读的一本。《四元素》系列（《沉没的世界》、《水晶世界》、《干旱》和《来自虚无的风》）非常棒，在我看来《沉没的世界》是其中最精彩的。《无限梦幻公司》（Unlimited Dream Company）很值得一读，《撞车》（Crash）也是。他的短篇小说通常……
High Rise is possibly his most readable. The Elements series (The Drowned World, The Crystal World, The Drought and The Wind From Nowhere) is very good, Drowned World being the best, IMO. Unlimited Dream Company is well worth reading, as is Crash. His short stories are generally…
读读 J.G. 巴拉德的《沉没的世界》吧，人类开始做起古老的梦。“正如精神分析通过重构最初的创伤情境来释放被压抑的潜意识一样，我们现在正被重新抛回……”
Read the 'Drowned World' by J.G. Ballard, humans start having ancient dreams. 'Just as psychoanalysis reconstructs the original traumatic situation in order to release the repressed material, so we are now being plunged back…
给巴拉德的《沉没的世界》点个赞，这是一部后生态末日题材的小说，主角经历了一种（自以为的）与宏大生物物理学、“神经元时间”的重新联结。我觉得把阿特伍德、巴拉德和柯蒂斯放在同一个帖子里，怎么也得……
Shout out to Ballard's The Drowned World, a post-ecopocalypse story where the main character undergoes a (perceived) reconnection with larger biophysics, "neuronic time. I feel like having Atwood, Ballard & Curtis in a thread deserves some…
我喜欢他1960年代的灾难小说——《沉没的世界》、《燃烧的世界》、《水晶世界》，都是讲文明走向终结、幸存者结伙求生的故事。它们对后来的作品绝对产生了深远影响，比如乔治·罗梅罗的《活死人之夜》系列电影。
I like his 1960s disaster novels -- The Drowned World, The Burning World. The Crystal World, about civilization ending and bands of survivors trying to get by. They definitely had an influence on later works, such as George Romero's "Living Dead" films.
我也超级喜欢这个三部曲。《沉没的世界》是我真正接触巴拉德的敲门砖。我从小就一直喜欢电影《太阳帝国》，但一直说不清为什么。直到2020年的某一天，我读了这部电影的维基百科页面，……
Absolutely love this trilogy too. The Drowned World was my first proper introduction to Ballard. I'd always liked the movie Empire of the Sun since I was a kid, but could never quite put my finger on why. One day in 2020 I read the films wikipedia page,…
