Have you seen Altered States?You can read Ballard's Drowned World as the story of a gardener defending his garden before abandoning it for the hero's journey. We start with Kerans' routine in the jungles and lagoons of London, follow him through various scuffles with colleagues attempting to remove him from his garden and a serious confrontation with a group of outsiders who threaten the garden itself then see him wander off into the distance, perhaps in search of another garden, having eliminated all comers and left the garden in a position to flourish unattended. That, or the world becomes his garden.
So he left the lagoon and entered the jungle again, within a few days was
completely lost, following the lagoons southward through the increasing rain
and heat, attacked by alligators and giant bats, a second Adam searching for
the forgotten paradises of the reborn Sun.
