I know this is way off topic but I need help with a title of a book.

I found a book when I was stationed in Bermuda. If I remember right the author and a Russian sounding name. I thought the title was, "The man who returned to the Sea." It was the story about a man who worked a chemical plant. The story starts out with him looking out his window at the pollution he sees as he get ready for work. While at work a valve blew and he had horrible burns and injuries. When he is able to go back to work, he builds a custom sub to explore the oceans. The sub is destroyed and he discovers that he can breath underwater. He ends up caught in a trawlers fishnet and they haul him on board. Please if you have read the story or know the title please contact me. I contacted Forest Ackerman several years ago and he thought it was by a Russian sc-fi author and it was a older short story call amphibian man. But it's not. I'm hoping that one of you guys can answer this.

Those guys are as good at finding books from vague descriptions as the people here are with movies.
