Gabriela Bustelo is one of the few Spanish women who have written science fiction. Her second novel Planeta Hembra (RBA, 2001), located in New York, is a dystopia that envisaged —almost two decades ago— the underlying conflict between women and men that in the 21st century has become the MeToo Movement as a global battle of the sexes. La historia de siempre jamás (El Andén, 2007) portrays the immorality and shallowness of European political elites.
