An essay arguing that the tech capitalism of Bezos, Musk and Zuckerberg, with its interplanetary travel and promises of immortality, has borrowed the language of science fiction to sell a better future. Nieva criticises that tech aesthetic politically, stands up for literature and traces the links between the genre and the history of capitalism.

Why we only look at used copies

In Spain, Law 10/2007 fixes the price of new books: the publisher sets it and shops can only take 5% off. Amazon, FNAC and your local bookshop all cost the same. The only place the price moves is second-hand.
