Jeff VanderMeer is a renowned author known for his unique and unconventional writing style. He is best known for the Southern Reach trilogy, which began with the novel "Annihilation." The book was later adapted into a film directed by Alex Garland and starring Natalie Portman.

In Jeff VanderMeer's novel "Borne," Rachel, a scavenger in a ruined city, discovers a mysterious green lump she names Borne. Initially small and seemingly harmless, Borne grows and develops a unique bond with Rachel. As he evolves, Borne's presence begins to disrupt the city's power dynamics, controlled by the remnants of a powerful Company. This disturbance places Rachel in increasing danger, challenging her survival in the hazardous urban landscape. The story explores themes of companionship and the consequences of scientific experimentation.
