The Ally

Original title: El aliado
Synopsis:

Conceived initially as a story with one foot in the real world and another in a possible future, The Ally is a cleverly written novel filled with humor that contains pertinent reflections on the subject of feminism in contemporary life.

The Ally is an intense, extreme and provocative novel with an easy-to-grasp plot: boy meets girl. Girl is a feminist leader. Boy thinks he’s progressive, a feminist, but he soon realizes there is much still to be done. Boy is impatient and is in a hurry for feminism to triumph. Boy has a simple idea: incite the revolution. But in order to do this, he will have to pay a price: to turn his beloved into enemy number one.

Conceived initially as a story with one foot in the real world and another in a possible future, The Ally is a cleverly written novel filled with humor that contains pertinent reflections on the subject of feminism in contemporary life.

“This text, of rare intelligence, approaches feminism in a new way since it is both funny and serious, pointing out to us our ethical contradictions. Squeaky
and shiny.” - Le Nouvelle Suisse

"A brilliant satire" - Diario de Sevilla

“A fresh and funny novel under which lies a deep reflection on the feminist movement and the role played by men in this revolution.” - El País
