ANN LECKIE, CAT RAMBO AND ACTIVIST SCIENCE FICTION
Ann Leckie and Cat Rambo are two of today’s most outstanding science-fiction authors. The works of these two veteran writers are characterised by the ground-breaking elements they introduce and by their defence of values such as feminism and environmentalism. Leckie and Rambo share the belief that art can change mentalities and cultures, and in their writing, they seek to approach this transformation in an active way. Making good use of their visit to Catalonia during Festival 42, they both wanted to come and talk with the literary communicator Leticia Lara about the parallelisms between their literary universes, published by Nova and La Máquina que Hace PING!, and about the best way to change the world through literature.
