Current genre stories provide readers with a range of possible futures for humanity. From the most idealistic utopias to the most dramatic apocalypses, writers have imagined a thousand and one alternatives for our world, and this roundtable is a good example of that variety. From the Apocalypse in the most biblical and classical sense, now retranslated by Fruela Fernández in Apocalipsis. Revelación de Juan (Wunderkammer), to the critical utopia of Lola Robles Más allá de la Concordia (Consonni). Along the way, there is the vindication of Ballard as a pioneer of post-modern dystopia, in the essay Ballard reloaded,, edited by Beatriz García Guirado and Andreu Navarra (H&O), or the futuristic hopepunk novel Intermnemosis, by Celia Corral-Vázquez (Crononauta). The writer Cristina Jurado, one of the editors of Todos los demás planetas, an anthology that also has hopepunk elements , will be moderating the discussion and stoking the fire of hopeful futures.
