What are some books that deal with leaving, escaping, or otherwise stepping outside the iron cage of modernity? Outside of the bourgeois hell of capitalism?

I'm reading J.G. Ballard's Drowned World and it makes me want more books like this.

I have been curious to know if there is a novel that had no human characters or even a definite animal as the "protagonist",
but spends the novel solely describing nature but still somehow manages to pull a plot out of it.
I would also expect that some beautiful prose would be necessary for such a novel to still be enticing.
