Barcelona Tropical La Directa
Editorial illustration for a short piece by Carlos García Cádiz for La Directa
Barcelona Tropical" is a short piece of speculative fiction published in La Directa. Set in a climate-changed near future, the story depicts a Barcelona whose residents now live aboard a giant cruise ship — the Ciutat de Barcelona — after the city was presumably subsumed or abandoned due to rising seas and extreme heat. The mayor convenes an emergency plenary session on the ship's rooftop terrace in the sweltering heat of February, as a citizens' insurrection below has forced the meeting outside.
